On the Apple discussion boards, a woman from NJ asked other users if iPhone photos automatically attach themselves to email, after she "found a raunchy picture" her husband sent to a woman via his iPhone: "He admitted that he took the picture but says that he never sent it to anyone. He claims that he went to the Genius Bar at the local Apple store and they told him that it is an i-phone glitch." Most users smell a rat ("this is not an issue with the iPhone so the glitch is probably with your husband.") and wonder about the picture itself. In the midst of the exchange, the aggrieved wife adds, "Well, if you must know ... it was a close-up shot of him pleasuring himself taken at the exact moment of maximum pleasure... Add that picture to the late night phone calls and some other miscellaneous texts and e-mails that I found ... and let's just say that my atty is working on the divorce complaint. Nonetheless, I wanted to remain open to the possibility that it was all some big mistake (I think that he is the big mistake) and thank everyone who provided input on this discussion."
