Damn You Auto Correct

Damn You Auto Correct is the name of a website started in 2010 by Jillian Madison. It is also the name of a book Madison wrote that was published in 2011 by Hyperion Books.[1] The website and the book both compile texts sent on iPhones that were altered by the phone's autocorrection feature to produce what are often unintentionally funny messages.[2] Within a week of its launch, the website had collected hundreds of submissions and had attracted about one million page views.[3]
