As you well know, Facebook allows you to follow all the posts (obviously only the public ones) of a person even if he is not your friend on the social network. But in case you are the ones being followed by someone who is not in your friendships and are curious to know who they are, this is the right guide. We will briefly explain how to find out who wants to "spy on you" without the person in question noticing.
Procedure from PC
Via PC it is really simple to perform the various steps and it will take really a few seconds. Enter your Facebook diary and under your profile picture, in the tab In short, you will see the number of people who follow you, click on it and you will discover the names of those who follow you.
If from the card In short no information appears, try this other way: click on the word Friends which is located under the cover image and next to the search bar in order to find your friends (located on the right) select the item Other, in which among the various options you will find People Following Updates or Following People, in case you also want to remind YOU who you follow. I want to clarify that with the same procedures you can also discover the followers of your friends, simply by connecting to their profile and performing exactly the same steps, explain yourself.
If, on the other hand, the idea that everyone can find out who follows you does not convince you very much, you can always hide the display of your followers from friends by changing the privacy in a few simple steps:
- Select the item Friends found under the cover image;
- Click on the pencil icon (i.e. the settings) above the friends search bar and enter Change Privacy;
- Both the entry will appear People / Pages Followed (i.e. the people you are following) be that People who follow you, and in both cases select the item Only me if you want to keep your followers or the people you follow hidden from anyone.
