    Privacy and network security


    When I was trying to change the Privacy and network security settings because it was causing problems with one of the games I was playing, it just kept saying "Unexpected error. Please try again later." Is there anyway to fix it? I've tried every basic
    stuff i know to fix it.

    :)

    Funny you should bring up about posting to the insiders because this is where my security concerns come from .I was made part of the preview team but nobody can tell me how long I have been on it but it must have been a while because it is as you know
    now called insiders and I have been fighting for over four years to leave

    To your first answer I know that you can be followed by other players even if I do not add them as a friend. That is why the first word to the description for this post is privacy. To your second answer . That to avoid request from other players I simply
    have to enable that function. That only covers chat, party and game invites , it doe's not stop them from adding you as their friend. Then after they have added you as their friend they are in your followers list even after you block and mute them. This is
    something that I have had some experience with. I have removed around 40,000 followers by simply blocking and muting . This is where the second word of my post comes into play which is security. If what Microsoft is telling me is correct that you are unable
    to remove people that add you as a friend Well I do it all the time , in fact every day. There have only been 7 people that have remained in my followers list after they have added me as their friend and I have blocked and muted them. Five were removed by
    the enforcement team about two years ago. So followers can be removed not just by me but also by them. And the other two are only just recent. So either enforcement are not receiving me as having reported these two players which is possible or they just haven't
    got around to it yet , because it did take them about two years to remove them last time. About 90 percent of people who add me as their friend are instantly blocked and muted the moment they add me. T hey do not have time to change friendship and remove me
    as their friend, which is the reason that I am given that these new people who added me as their friend have not been removed. Then there should still be around 30,000 followers all blocked and muted and unable to be removed by me. And the only people that
    can do it would be enforcement. So I stand behind the title of this post which is privacy and security .Thankyou to anyone who has taken the time to read this . I don't expect this to be fixed or even to be viewed , but at least I got to say what I wanted
    to say

    Enforcement team removed people who added me as their friend which I had not added them but blocked and muted .Why wont they do it now why should I have to see people that I have blocked and muted on my Xbox live account remain in my followers list
    Hi pleaseXplain,

    Thank you for posting on the Xbox Forums I totally agree what you saying and it has been annoying. I would recommend you report your concern through the Xbox insiders.

    thanks
