Real phones have cloud services that let you pick what gets shared. Bought a second rate product? YDI, now they are on a leaked camera website.

And that is why you shouldn't take pics that you aren't comfortable with everyone seeing. I was taught that as a child, before technology really made that statement true.

Call me an iNoob but what the hell is the point of these options?! They sound like nothing but recipes for disaster. Why the hell would you want to automatically share all your messages?!

I would never use iCloud because things like that happen all the time for people who do. FYL for having to deal with that at work but sorry YDI if you knew your wife could send you things and might possibly send you pictures. Think before acting to both of you.

Because phone companies love to add useless features. Why would you want to upload any messages? Unless its from like someone who was dying and it was their last message to you and you're changing phones. But then you wouldnt want other people to see it. Hmm.

I guess I'm confused by the number of YDI's on this. The guy is at work. It does not seem unreasonable to have filesharing, depending on what you do for living, at work so that colleagues can work on projects together. His wife is sending him racy pictures at work. It does not say that he requested that she do so. So why does he deserve it?

It is totally your fault, you shouldn't share personal social media with people you work with.

"sharing" is also optional with both features. iMessage allows you to text multiple people and have a group conversation assuming everyone's on an apple device, including iPads, iPhones, and any Mac computer which is nice for anyone without an iPhone. Putting photos in your iCloud also frees up storage space on your phone and doesn't have to be viewed by anyone other than yourself if set up properly. From ops post it sounds like he DID want his photos shared. Sounds like ydi to me; your wife should know if all of your photos are shared with the whole office.

Surely that made their day.

Dang man, at least it wasn't a nude picture of you.
