Maybe I worded things wrong as I certainly didn’t mean that Plus invades peoples privacy, I obviously use Plus and love many of it features, I really like the skins and a lot of the scripts also….
I was giving the example of DP stealing as until I became aware of it I really had no clue that by having my picture up, someone would be able to steal it, keep it and use it as their DP which meant that anyone on their contact list could also steal it and so on...
Maybe that’s not an invasion of privacy since I had it up in the first place, maybe I was just naïve and a little uneducated. Now that I know better I simply don’t put up any pictures I don’t want others to have, a choice I can make now since I’m aware that it is possible…
As far as being able to see when “someone is appearing offline” or when “someone has blocked you” or who “opens a conversation window” yesterday I was wondering if all of these things were in actual fact possible and were incorporated into Plus or a script or another program would it still be seen as an invasion of privacy or just another feature. It was just a hypothetical question not an accusation or an assumption that WLM or Plus invades people’s privacy...
Damn, I didn’t mean to offend anyone…
