I mean, we kinda already ended up there with the Ashley Madison hack in 2015. Problems with that site aside, I feel like it's kinda the blueprint for everything wrong with companies that retain personally identifable info on folks. If a company collects details like your driver's license, it's not a question of if it gets out but when. There's just no way to collect that sort of data and truly keep it safe.

But, it seems like we've kinda forgotten how to learn lessons in the modern day, so I'm sure this was an isolated issue and we'll never see it's like again.

(/s on that last part, just in case that wasn't blindingly obvious.)

What use is American personal info to a German anon?

I mean it's even in the app name that it's not about protecting women and keeping them safe, it's literally about "spilling the tea" aka gossip. It's pretty gross and can be used for nonconsenual sharing of images and even slander too since there's no way to know if what someone is writing on there about someone is true or not.

What about people who don't use this app, do they not deserve to be protected, do they deserve to suffer because they didn't use this app?

Let's be real, this app is about gossip, it's not about protecting women and keeping them safe, it's literally in the name it's about "spilling the tea" aka gossip.

Almost 250k petition votes now, 150k more votes in the past day alone.

I hear that, I just don't think this is the way to go about it. Digital reputation system that lives on some corporate dataset is just ripe for terrible problems. It's terrible for everyone's privacy when we normalize this shit.

You sort of started it with your comment. I don't want to be around people that feel the need to document everything on a website. Please inform those around you so they can decide to opt out.

It was literally just a gossip site.
Glad it got what it deserved, even if 4channers suck.
The male version of this got shut down too.

Oh hey look, the straw man is waving at you

Congrats, dumbest take you could have on this.

A public S3 bucket? Whoever used the app should start a class action lawsuit, this is beyond misconduct.

Imagine the other gaping security holes in this thing if storing all the data on a public s3 bucket flew under the radar until after release.

Just curious, what was the male version?

Women aren't routinely abusing men with dating apps

Lmao

They generally don´t need it though

Saying 4channers suck is very similar to saying Lemmy users suck. Depends on board and instance respectively.

Gossip sites suck, but nobody deserves to get their data leaked.

How do you think anyone who had their face and details posted by a vindictive ex feels?
Yeah nobody does, but I feel less devestated when it was already happening from them against people.
