Actually no. People do. Heck I even wrote a simple ruby script to help me track when and what I said that caused people to unfollow me, and who it was to see if they important or not:

The real solution came with lists. Following has always been a vanity thing. There are people that I want to follow but don't want those people to know. Also I want to follow people out of respect but their volume is too high. Private lists give me that solution.
