I have a snapchat account. I follow precisely one person - the model who I visit regularly.
Yesterday, I got a friend recommendation with a very distinctive username which matched the username of a Streamate model I've seen in the passing. I've never visited this model and so obviously there's not some kind of web history trail. She doesn't have my phone number or my email address nor me hers. In fact, she only shows up on my Streamate homepage because geographically she is in the same part of the world as me. That's why I've seen the very distinctive username. I'm not going to reveal what it is but rest assured there are three very distinctive mispelt words in a row in the username which match the Snapchat profile exactly so there is no doubt it's the same person. The avatar totally matches the real person as well
There is no way she could be connected to the model I visit (or at least it's a millions to one chance) because they are in different continents. So that begs the question, is it just pure coincidence? Or is there some kind of algorithm there that I don't understand.
I'm not concerned. I've no interest in friending her and I've also no issue that she sees my profile but it does raise some worrying questions about privacy for cam models and members. There is clearly something somewhere that understands that I visit cam models and recommends random profiles to me. There are a few other suspiciously cam-modelesque usernames in my recommendations despite me being connected to only one person.
Gives me the privacy shivers. Urging caution here, particularly for models.
