In other words, if you decide to watch someone, they should be aware that you are watching them (same goes for marketers, law enforcement, etc.). So I welcome this change… TO AN EXTENT. Non-lurking is not the same as public endorsement. In other words, I think it would be a good idea if the person who made a post/comment/etc. could see everyone who read it. I do not think it is a good idea if EVERYONE can see the same.

Seems like you’ve got anger/ego issues. Log off the Internet, go outside, watch the birds play. Life’s too short to be “infuriated” by news items.

“Jive” is a particular slang dialect. The word you’re looking for is “jibe“.
