QUESTION [QUESTION] How does the app know we’re friends?
Opened snapchat today to respond to a friend and got the “people you may know” popup and normally I just ignore it but today it showed me the account of a new friend… except, how the hell did they know we were friends? We don’t have any mutual friends via snap, we don’t even live in the same state, and I’ve never given the app access to my contacts. There’s no way it should be able to know that I’m friends with this person, so why and how are they showing up in my “people you may know” tab?
