"due to privacy concerns about privacy"

This strikes me as a particularly funny typo



Probably wrote "due to concerns about privacy" then realized it should be "due to privacy concerns" and forgot to remove the original bit.

Many such cases.


I often do that frequently. I should do it, but forget to not fully proof read after a quick edit. I also regularly leave out n't a lot when changing where a negation happens (see above).


Definitely not using Apple's epic proofread feature.


"In hindsight, the ad slogan 'Sunshine on your privacy' was a little too obvious, even for modern consumers. Let's Dazzle them with the next shiny thing instead."
