Automatic Sharing Of Images

[LesPalenik]

New feature by Samsung phones, they are now sending random photos to other people. Could be a problem with kompromat images or other sensitive images.

Samsung’s smartphones may not be randomly bursting into flames now, but a strange and creepy new problem has appeared: some users are having photos randomly and quietly sent to other people.

Wow, that could go very, very badly in some situations.

They should advertise it as: "Feature you always wanted but never had the courage to ask".

Photos of my pets and various lighting set ups. That’s all you would see on my phone.

Yeah my phone is pretty safe/boring but I keep hearing about sexting so someone must have more interesting pics on their phones.

Even an innocent shot of your beloved pussy cat could trigger the sending action. Same for beaver images.

How about roosters?

If only NY congressman Weiner used that Samsung, he could say "Your Honor, I did not send that picture to that kid."
