A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Somebody who clicks "accept transfer" on the screen without knowing why it popped up deserves whatever comes next. Only exception being young kids who shouldn't have access to a fully functional device anyway. If there's some sort of "Toddler mode" on iPhone, then yeah def have airdrop disabled when in that mode. This is a parenting issue. We should be far more concerned about child advertising and parents putting their entire kid's life story on Facebook.
Also, why are police fear mongering on social media in any official capacity. Seems pretty damn unprofessional.
