If your phone starts listening BEFORE you answer, will that be considered a BUG or Feature (AI may be). Apparently, FaceTime has this problem and Apple is scrambling to fix this embarrassingly dangerous “snooping” bug in FaceTime app.



The bug goes like this:


  1. Call someone from your contacts using FaceTime.
  2. Their phone will ring.
  3. Use the “Add Person” option to include a new participant in the chat, namely yourself. 


…and you can immediately hear the audio feed from the person who hasn’t answered the call yet.
