title: Universal Linking working even IF I haven't updated the apple-app-site-association file
body: <p>For my app I see that Universal linking is working even when I hadn't set up the apple-app-site-association file enabling universal linking. I am however using the same file for handoff. </p>
  
  <p>I then tried modifying the "apple-app-site-association" file to include the "applinks" dict and by leaving the "paths" field empty, I expected no link to get redirected to the app. Ihe links are still opening in the app inspire of this.</p>
  
  <p>Has anybody else seen this behavior? </p>
  
  <p>A similar question was asked in the apple developer forum but there is no reply from apple. <a href="https://forums.developer.apple.com/message/28606#28606" rel="nofollow">https://forums.developer.apple.com/message/28606#28606</a></p>
  
  <p>How does one set up the file to enable handoff but disable universal linking?</p>
