HACKING BEGINS.

Working on unfollows. A pain, because the unfollow is technically an undo of the follow, and requires the original activity ID of that follow - just like likes and boosts. HOWEVER, we don't RECORD the follow until it is approved by the followee, and at that point, don't have the original outbound activity ID.

AH! This is not as bad as I thought because the flow is actually ->

I follow in my client -> send a follow request to you You approve -> send an approval OF ORIGINAL FOLLOW (including id) My client now records the follow along with original ID
