"Tea" app - user database leaked today (incl. drivers license & IDs). Daily reminder not to give your ID to online services [THEY DO NOT PROTECT YOUR INFORMATION]
-
What's the alternative to warning strangers about predators?
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.

The drivers license thing is likely due to a law passed by the UK a few days ago requires all mature content to be behind an age check. And not a "Are you 18: Yes / No", more like "we will check using ID and photos of you".
It's the most hated piece of legislation in a while, with already 100 000 petition votes in 3 days to repeal it.
Almost 250k petition votes now, 150k more votes in the past day alone.

What's the alternative to warning strangers about predators?
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.

Alright, but none of that was really relevant to this comment. Why are you soapboxing on it?
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.

Remember the UK new safety law.

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. -
Yes, trying to warn other women about a man you dated who abused you or gave off weird vibes is definitely the same as getting your nudes or porn video of yourself leaked against your will onto the public internet for everyone to see
Oh hey look, the straw man is waving at you

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.

The male version of this got shut down too.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.
