I don't want it.<br /><br />For Skype this is interesting, as the purpose is commercial: awake "dead or sleeping" customers.<br /><br />But, ok, i agree that some people will like this "feature".Jean Mercierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11574194645522976288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32560458.post-9494439431683011572009-04-20T18:27:00.000+02:002009-04-20T18:27:00.000+02:00No no.

But indeed, i should do it! I will! :-)<BR/><BR/>For the e-mail authorization request, i continue to disagree. It is exactly what i thought: it is a way for Skype to bring ocasional users back to Skype, therefore pure economical interest!<BR/><BR/>I agree that default settings should always be for people less comfortable with the product. Therefore ... disable it! Most people will NOT find how to do it!Jean Mercierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11574194645522976288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32560458.post-75979575676645803022009-04-03T15:05:00.000+02:002009-04-03T15:05:00.000+02:00I also have my privacy settings set to accept chat...I also have my privacy settings set to accept chat from all, and I almost never receive spam.<BR/><BR/>But Jean, when you get spam, do you systematically block the spammer, AND check the box "report to Skype"? This allows us to see who gets blocked a lot, and disable their account.<BR/><BR/>And for the email authorization request, this is useful for people who don't login every day. True for power users it's not necessary, but they know how to disable it :-) Default settings should always be for people less comfortable with the product.Vincenthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01546152549535716731noreply@blogger.com
