A Southwest Airlines passenger has been accused of sending a photo of his own genitals to other passengers who were on board with him. Before going any further, however, it is good to explain what AirDrop is, which is the system at the center of this in-flight scandal.
In this article:
It is a tool found on all iOS devices and macOS computers, i.e., Apple products. It allows the sharing of photos, videos, websites, locations and more from one device to another from the house of the bitten apple, in a simple and immediate way. A time-saving and wireless transfer, whether to friends, colleagues or yourself, hypothetically from your computer to your smartphone.
Sharing a file from one cell phone to another consists simply of selecting what we want to send, clicking Share, and specifying the user who is to receive it. The latter will end up with a warning message on the display, being able to accept or decline. However, users who decide to leave the settings open for receiving are not at all uncommon. This is exactly what happened on the Southwest Airlines flight.
Genital photos on airplane: the story on TikTok
A woman sitting across from the passenger in question, who was accused of sharing a decidedly private photo with the rest of the flight, found herself with a notification on her phone. She saw the snapshot and realized that the man was still sharing images. She therefore asked him if it was his intention or if it was a mistake. No mistake, unfortunately. The sharing was intentional and the passenger immediately notified the flight crew.
The TikTok account DaddyStrange333 brought this absurd story to light, posting the footage on the flight and adding text to explain in detail what happened: "Meet Larry, who just shared photos of his penis with AirDrop with the entire flight. Luckily I agreed, saw what he was sending to everyone, and started reporting the situation."
In the clip we can hear alerting a stewardess, briefly explaining to her what happened. When asked directly by the woman, the man does not try to lie and explains that he was just having fun. According to her account, the man was then escorted off the plane by officers. A fight nearly broke out, it seems, with the father of a minor ready to lash out at Larry. Furious at the gesture, having risked showing himself to his son while thankfully not accepting the notice of receipt.
A spokesman for Southwest Airlines told the Post how theincident actually happened on a flight from Detroit to Denver: "Our flight attendants immediately dealt with the situation. The crew called for local law enforcement to intervene so that they could wait for the plane to land. That is exactly what happened and subsequently the individual responsible was arrested. Southwest Airlines has zero tolerance for this type of obscene behavior. This is something unacceptable and we offer our sincerest apologies to the other passengers on board."
Airdrop
This technology Can be used in flight to chat among friends, exchange precisely files and videos Since it does not fall under the board prohibitions. As always, however, those who are there plan to use it in other ways. This happened to me recently in England on board a train. The first time on the platform, waiting, I got a notification and opened the photo. A nice selfie of a butt. I looked around and tried to dispatch the potential anointed one. A short time later aboard the super-crowded train, two young girls popped up in my carriage giggling with each other. I had already seen them when I had received the first dispatch. A few seconds later din. Here was the notification and the same sender was sending me the same picture. Needless to say, in order to "unmask" them, I said aloud, "Next time at least change the photo....." At the next stop they disappeared.
