Ian found out the hard way:
I made a Twitter Circle with one person in it and posted this tweet for science. This was the result. Two people I don't follow saw the tweet & liked it. One of those people doesn't follow me either.

Twitter Circles aren't private. Don't post anything you want private in them. pic.twitter.com/p5uzlmIkuJ
Curious to see what GDPR implications this has and how it relates to the up to EUR ~30 billion fine risk twitter has in Germany for not really moderating hate speech reports:
Twitter—which Musk now says is worth only ~$20 billion—could soon face up to €30 billion in fines *in Germany alone* because of Musk’s refusal to meaningfully moderate hate speech on this platform. Think Twitter won’t go bankrupt in 2024? I’d think again. https://t.co/buKNtzRBnV

There's also this interesting case of blocking not working: you can no longer expect that if you block someone, they will not see your tweets.
