Gmail’s new warning could save you from major embarrassment
Wait! You were BCC'd.
A new feature from Gmail aims to prevent users from inadvertently revealing their blind copy status to all recipients. Beginning today, any Gmail user who attempts to reply-all to an email where they were blind copied will be greeted with a yellow banner warning them of the unintended disclosure. Google announced the change in a recent blog post, emphasizing that this alert will be visible to all users starting immediately.
The feature is designed to help avoid embarrassing situations where a person's email address is inadvertently exposed to a larger group of people.
