LOL..  "A bug in Apple’s FaceTime feature caused quite the stir on social media Monday, when users learned they could essentially eavesdrop on the people they’re calling and see through their front-facing camera, even if the other person hasn’t picked up the call."

Oh dear. Apple fanboys will be in all sorts of denial.

    Which one? General Software? Computer Industry News? Dunno.. seems General Discussion is appropriate enough, but I'm sure some OCD Moderator will make that decision, lol.

    Not really surpised. Apple isn’t as perfect as people think they are. I am kind of shiocked though they didn’t blame it on pocket dialing.

    Ever since Steve Jobs was pushed out of Apple and then died his company lost all sense of direction. So this FaceTime issue is no surprise at all.

    one insurance company's slogan is "change happens" but i prefer the more direct "**** happens"
     
    I do not use facetime but when a bug is found at least apple disabled it pending a fix

    What is really odd is Apple admits the bug and the stock climbs. That doesn’t make sense.

    It sounds like an easy fix - not some flaw deeply embedded with the hardware architecture. Plus AAPL has been hammered recently.
