Eagerly awaiting military leadership posting about this on HN: 'Ask HN: Locked out of account, overseas Google support keeps leading us in circles'

That or soldiers getting reprimanded because accidental auto-responder was like 'Haha!' or 'Great!' to something requiring a deeper response.



> accidental auto-responder

This stuff can be dangerous. My son asked me a question in chat and my phone somehow auto-responded a "No" answer. I'm guessing I put my phone in my pocket without locking it. Luckily I caught it in time and as soon as that happened I disabled all auto-responding features.


Same story for Apple Watch. A wrong answer is one misclick away. All auto response should only type the response and wait the usual send command.
