Path Uploads Address Book Data [Updated]

Posted on February 7, 2012 in Apple

Not cool, Path. Not cool at all.

Update: Path CEO Dave Morin, in a comment on that post:

We upload the address book to our servers in order to help the user find and connect to their friends and family on Path quickly and efficiently as well as to notify them when friends and family join Path. Nothing more.

We believe that this type of friend finding & matching is important to the industry and that it is important that users clearly understand it, so we proactively rolled out an opt-in for this on our Android client a few weeks ago and are rolling out the opt-in for this in 2.0.6 of our iOS Client, pending App Store approval.
