Second paragraph :
> If you’ve never heard of this feature and you suddenly feel the urge to delete your Telegram account forever, let me stress something very important: “People Nearby” is opt-in. By default, no one can see how far away you are on Telegram. You’ll only ever end up in other people’s lists by pressing the “Make Myself Visible” button. If you choose to try it out, remember to disable it once you’re done.
- eqtn 6y agoIf you have "Last Seen & Online" set to "My Contacts", then those people will see you in People nearby even if "Make Myself Visible" is turned off
- hnarn 6y agoDo you have a source for this claim? I don’t find this exception documented.
- eqtn 6y agoI don't know why i am being downvoted. I tested then and i also have test now. I thought this was the expected behavior. It shows me(who is in their contact list and on completely different network) as online 100m away
- hnarn 6y agoAs I said, my issue is mostly with the headline.
- folkrav 6y agoFair - although I'm not big on shifting the blame from people only relying on headlines to form an opinion. That's on them, so-called "clickbait" or not.
