Blackberry BBM Setting Could Share Your Porn with the World

MOBILESPACE—Crackberry.com has noted a weak link of sorts with the Blackberry BBM (formerly Blackberry Messenger), which “has an option to share what music you listen to in the media player as your status update.” Thing is, in Blackberry 10 videos played in the browser activate the media player and will also be shared if the feature is enabled. 

The feature “is disabled by default,” adds the site, “but if you happened to toggle it on at some point, it can of course be disabled if you know where to look.” If you don’t disable it and you’ve been watching porn, it too will be shared as if it is a music file.

To avoid a mishap, Crackberry.com suggests you complete the following steps before video browsing:

* In BBM swipe down from the top bezel then choose Settings

* Toggle Show What I'm Listening To so it shows Off

* Tap Back to save
