AirDrop also shares your full name (seemingly the one associated with your Apple ID, not what you have set for yourself in your contacts), both by displaying it in the sharing interface on the involved devices and by attaching it as an extended attribute to uploaded files.
The latter is more serious imo, because those attributes live on your file system basically for ever, and they're preserved when transferring to another compatible file system or even when archived in a zip file. The meta-data can ride along with the files to completely unrelated systems even years after the fact. So if you AirDrop some files to your computer and then zip them up, anyone you send that zip to (a journalist, a public file-hosting site, w/e) will have your full legal name to go with them.
Even sharing your name through the interface seems questionable -- the fact that you and another person have each other's phone numbers is not necessarily an indication that you want to share your real names with each other. (Though i guess someone could usually find it out anyway if they already had your phone number.)
I reported this to Apple, but i don't think they care. Seems like it's by design.
fish doesn't try to support all of the weird historical quirks of Bourne-style shells, so its grammar and built-in 'API' are far simpler and clearer. Its out-of-the-box configuration is much much nicer for most people than zsh's. Completion definitions are easier to read/write. Its source code seems less byzantine. And its GitHub-based development model is more accessible.
The down side is that it's functionally very limited compared to zsh. fish's completion functions are easy to maintain, but the trade-off is that they don't offer the fine-grained contextual control over behaviour that zsh's do. Features like globbing, sub-shells, job control, co-processes, modules, &c., are absent or extremely limited. There are fewer knobs and switches, though as mentioned it tries to do the right thing for most people by default. And a consequence of the syntax being clearer is that it's also much more verbose, which i guess you may or may not appreciate.
Over-all i think fish is a good shell for the (very common) type of person who doesn't really care about shells but was drawn to zsh just because it has nicer completion than bash and lets you write fancy prompts. I don't think it's a good fit, yet, for people who write complex scripts or regularly make use of stuff like extended globs, background jobs, and fancy parameter expansions.
