Calling it device hoarding is a way to make sensible consumers feel bad when they are cutting down on e-waste and saving money.

Real device hoarding is buying a new phone every few months and not selling or donating the perfectly good older ones so that they can be used by others who are don't need the latest features.

That sounds sensible.

In order to keep their abuse secret, these harassing accounts would have to use "Request to follow", because otherwise their abuse could be easily exposed by those following them.

I have avoided following anyone with this setting, not wanting to be in a group where others are not welcome. I know this is a weak reason, but now I have a stronger one.

Thank you very much for explaining this.
