You ever read the comments on that discover section? Yikes. Definitely the most racist, homophobic, anti Semitic comments online that I’ve seen since like 2007.

I agree that this is creepy, but can’t you do the exact same thing with the Find My widget?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

sure, but apple already makes the phone. they can already sell this info. Snapchat does it just to be kind to the user!

Tf are you talking about? LMAO!

Most people using FindyMy are family who might have a reason to see your location or to find something of yours. People become friends with people they barely know on Snapchat

Good thing that crap will never be used on my phone 👍

You get a notification if someone pins your location on their homescreen. apples find my has the exact same feature and that doesn’t warn you.

Same on Android.

You can literally disable sharing your location though? It would be on you if you keep live location sharing on for ANY app on ur phone

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Actually you can but you can’t anyone can see your location in Snapchat if you have Snapchat+

As an aside, I find it weird that they label that area Hell's Kitchen when those streets are way down in Soho.

Well, I would hope that Snapchat had the creepiest Snapchat widget.

The word creep has entirely lost all meaning due to overuse by people whose feelings are hurt due to weak character by some act.
