I wonder if this will be high level enough an incident to make companies end those opt-out contact autosuggestions in messenger apps for good.
Then again if they had been ended by now, we might never have heard of this SNAFU.
- joenot443 2y agoI think in the very best case we _might_ see Apple/G adding an option into the OS to disable contact autosuggestion, but I wouldn't hold my breath. When a feature is mildly useful 95% of the time and an awkward footgun 5%, I think it still remains a good addition, but one that can be turned off if necessary. Double checking the recipients in a chat discussing national security is a super low bar and the parties involved are rightfully embarrassed by this one. I'm not letting them blame it on the product managers
