Apple received a lot of flak this week for a security bug which allowed iOS users to eavesdrop on each other through Group FaceTime calls. Even if the person receiving the call did not answer, the callers would still be able to hear them on the other end (and vice versa). Apple disabled Group FaceTime on the server-side as quick fix, but told users that a software update with a permanent solution would roll out this week.
