Someone with nothing better to do than to spy on their neighbours for signs of petty wrongdoing. A derogatory term for members of the neighbourhood watch and other such organisations.
The term refers to the only sign of their presence - curtains twitching in suburban dwellings as they peek out at whatever might be going on outside.
Has absolutely nothing to do with homosexuality, except where homosexuality is illegal and thus something else for the curtain-twitchers to report to the authorities.

"Letting the deranged curtain twitcher at Snout’s Cottage gather “intelligence” about her neighbours reminds me of East Germany before the Wall came down."

A person who has nothing better to do other than spy on their fellow Social Media friends for signs of gossip.
Their duties include:
1. Scour other people's social media profiles for news they can use for their own joviality.
2. Using partners/friends account so they can't be traced or twitched at themselves.
3. Check out how sexy members of the opposite sex are without the person knowing.

I'm sure so and so is an electronic curtain twitcher as they seem to know so much about me and we're not even friends.
