Okay. A member of your family WhatsApp group chat starts spreading word of a malware issue that has been proven to be a hoax being regurgitated after 2 years. Do you correct him with a Snopes link or do you just stay mum and avoid being 'that guy'. It warns of a phone-bricking hack - but simply isn't true and there's no malicious scammy link or anything. No harm no foul and just keep my trap shut? What say you?

@rfquerin Don't let misinformation spread.

(But I'm not exactly the best person to ask. I have no fear of being "that guy" and generally feel that, if someone has a problem with it, I should seek better people to interact with anyway.)
