Today for whatever reason which I am sure we will hear shortly twitter started updating my status on Facebook. I don’t remember asking Facebook or Twitter to do that so they got some explaining to do. Anyways lets get down to business. How do we fix it?
- Login to Facebook and click on Profile.
- Find a twitter status update on your Facebook profile and click on the “via Twitter” link.
- Then click “Block Application” on the left side menu.
That should remove it from happening for now.
Now on to finding out why it’s happening…
*Update* – Techcrunch claims that an app was approved to show updates but I call BS. I never had that set up nor approved it.

Thanks for the advice! I noticed it to, and I recently (a few weeks back) I disabled all my apps on my facebook, as I wanted to be “unseen” on facebook. Yet it wasn’t until yesterday that I realized that my twitter was being posted in my status, yet that was one of my first apps to delete as I want facebook separate from twitter. How they got my user name again I’ll never know.

The only thing that links these 3 sites together for me is my email address.
If they took that and shared it that would be a giant breach of trust and privacy.
