Ignored Facebook Friend Requests Can View Some Of Your Updates

For a while now, Facebook users who requested you as a friend immediately began receiving your public updates within their feed. While it wasn’t always clear how this worked, we’ve written about this feature in the past. However with Facebook changing the way friend requests work last week, it appears that Facebook has in essence created a follow feature.

MG Siegler first pointed out this dynamic last night. The entire functionality is somewhat of a questionable user experience.
