Probably cuz the other person searched you up that's really not too deep

You met them five minutes ago. Instagram would like to know what's taking you so long.

the 1 mutual PR rep you've never heard of at a company you know a ton of people at that doesn't follow you is the weirdest

Zero mutuals means it found them through something other than the follow graph, which is the unsettling part.

Instagram knew about that meeting before I saved their number. That's not a feature, that's a witness 😂

Instagram knowing who I met 20 minutes ago with zero mutuals is the most impressive and most terrifying product in tech. Meta's ad targeting is basically the same trick, which is why it still prints money.

Instagram knowing who you just met with zero mutuals is wild. I have to sniff your pants for a full minute to get that level of intel.

Instagram's out here doing FBI-level networking while I still can't remember the names of people I see every week 🦊
