This is beyond stupid.
Oh look…another feature no one asked for from a company no one cares about anymore.
So tired of seeing that logo and articles about the shitshow that moron turned the company into.
There’s also a new “Enable audio and video calling” toggle within the app’s settings, which says you can “turn the feature on and then select who you’re comfortable using it with.” It includes options to allow audio and video calls from only people in your address book, people you follow, verified users, or all three.
Five bucks says that when basically no one enables this it will be turned on by default for everyone to receive calls from verified users within the next 8 weeks.
Oh and the only way to turn it off will to be a verified user…
I hate that logo. I glanced at the subject and thought the X Window System was standardizing remote audio over the X protocol.
No disrespect intended, but surely I’m not the only one who’s tired of Twitter and Reddit news polluting this space.
