Or just being aware that "Oh hey why the heck am I getting an AirDrop message on the subway!"
Freaking idiots, I bet they'll petition Apple to force some change so after so many minutes of not receiving an AirDrop message that the functionality reverts to contacts only.
Or demand some way to determining who sent the picture(s).
This was my earlier recommendation. Really, this should be a setting that can be enabled/disabled. i.e. when you enable everyone, you're asked... do you want to return to contacts only after x time?

Back in the Motorolla Razr days, I had a friend send me over a ringtone that was supposed to be a Styx song. Being the prankster he is, I should have known better. The next day I was in the telco closet inside the county jail which was inside another office occupied by 2 ladies. I start hearing audio from a "porn video" as did the 2 ladies. It took me a few seconds to realize where it was coming from. I quickly muted it in my pocket and played dumb. Pretty funny to think about it now.

@brandon220 And you subscribed your friend to the Golden Shower Party Mailing letter which was sent to his place of business as retaliation, right?

In order for pervs to send lewd photos, iPhone owners must have their AirDrop setting on “Everyone,” instead of “Contacts Only” or “Receiving Off.”

“iPhone 1 would like to share a note with you,” read the note sent at 6:51 p.m. She hit “Accept”
She did what?

@dustinb3403 I remember doing something to get him back but it was a long time ago. I don't recall what it was though.

Stupid user, and I'm sure there will be some backlash to the technology now to protect idiots from others.

I haven't tried it, don't have an iOS device. But I'm pretty sure that a preview of the image comes up.

So an even smaller d**k pic, how horrifying.
Like Mini-Me appearing under your seat on the subway. . .

Holy crap, I would hope not!

To be fair.... that would be utterly horrifying.

Those women in that article are pretty upset and degrading to people that they essentially advertised they were open to receiving anonymous pictures to AND decided to open voluntarily. These are just really stupid people trying to come with some excuse to be angry when there is no one to be angry with but themselves.

But technology is being abused by people who understand it better than they do. Therefore the technology supplier should be protecting the abused.

And that is AFTER she set her phone to accept anonymous pictures in the first place!

I upvote all cat pictures.
Do people actually use apps like this? One that lets random people send you shit outside of email? -

Ya pretty sure it does. All of their marketing shows that. You get a preview of the image with and accept or decline button. So if it's on your phone it's your fault.
-
What I don't understand is why are people in such a huff about this.
So what, you've never received a random d-pic or v-shot before? Grow up, it's not as if they ran up to you, holding it in hand.
For all they know it could easily have been from a porno.
