Jak informowałem podczas pisania o zamieszaniu z Path i wysyłaniem naszych danych na ich serwery, wysłałem maila do nich z prósbą o usunięcie moich danych — odpisał Nell z zespołu Path:
Thank you for getting in touch with us! You have been heard and as a result, as of Wednesday (February 8), we’ve deleted the entire collection of user uploaded contact information from our servers.
On behalf of the team, I’d like to apologize.
The way we had designed our ‘Add Friends’ feature was wrong. Our newest release of Path (2.0.6), will prompt users with the option of allowing or denying Path to access their contacts. We care deeply about our users, their sense of security and their control over their personal information on Path. Through our actions we aim to uphold this sentiment.
In the interest of complete transparency, we want to clarify that the use of this information is limited to improving the quality of friend suggestions when you use the ‘Add Friends’ feature and to notify you when one of your contacts joins Path––nothing else.
Reakcja CEO, Dave’a Morina, jak i całego zespołu jest wzorowa — tak właśnie powinna wyglądać komunikacja z użytkownikami w momencie popełnienia fuckupu.
