Has anyone ever had a situation where you’re following someone on TikTok, but you never actually clicked “Follow”?
In other words, can TikTok ever make you follow someone without you choosing to do it?

This happens way too frequently to like. Everyone !! It’s super weird, it’s suspected that if this happens you’ve been bought as a follower but im not sure how true that is.

What does bought as a follower mean?? There’s a bunch people it says I followed that I never recall following and it’s really annoying me

Basically, quite a few really popular users tend to buy their followers instead of earning them fairly and its theorised that if you’re following someone you absolutely haven’t followed yourself, you’re one of the followers that have been bought

Thank you so much! You’ve honestly no idea how much you’ve put my mind at ease 
Interesting theory! It sounds similar to a dating site/app I was on almost 10 years ago where you could buy people as “pets”
