Oh I see where this confusion came from @tobiaseigen wants:

`http://site.com/latest?user_is_watching=bob`

I think this is far to uncommon to add. For diagnostics I would recommend [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true). @maja can you:

1. Add a stock query to [data explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true) to view list of topics a user is watching.

2. Don’t render the “Show tracked topics” etc links IF you are viewing a profile that is not yours.
