Major FaceTime Bug Causes Apple To Disable Group FaceTime

Group FaceTime has been a long awaited feature for years now. However, a new bug has been discovered that could violate the privacy of people. To do this, all a FaceTime caller needs to do is to call someone using FaceTime, and add their self into the call. This, for whatever reason, causes the other person's audio to be streamed into the call, even though they never accepted the call. Apple has disabled group FaceTime to prevent this from occurring. It's obvious to see how this could be abused very quickly. Apple plans to send out a fix later this week [Source: Axios].
