"talk"

They try to get a pass on this by saying it's about "safety" and reporting creeps. But it's filled with women posting dudes and gossip. It gives me the same vibes as those sites back in the day that were shut down because they were essentially revenge porn sites. Same shit different form.

It's gossip and toxic. Have you not seen what these places are on Facebook?

Sucks that it has to

It doesn't have to.

Women aren't routinely abusing men with dating apps so yeah I would be weirded out lmao

What's the alternative to warning strangers about predators?

Yeah there was absolutely no need to include unfounded racist shit about “DEI hires” but it seems to be some sort of rule in 4chan that you have to be a bigoted fucknut in order to post

???? This is just textbook sso/openid but backed by the government. There's nothing intrinsically insecure about having third parties send you directly to a trusted government site for authorization.

And how does that prevent hacks that reveal the connection between ID and user account ?

Gives me no pleasure to add it to idcaboutprivacy

What connection do you think a third party is saving when using openid? Generally speaking the only thing the third party needs is your identifier which in most cases is just an email. It's no more devastating for the user base for that information to be leaked than it is when they're handling authorization themselves. I personally think using a government backed authorization platform is a terrible idea and something completely liable to be abused by those in power, but it would objectively be better than trying to have every single service store your personally identifiable information themselves.

Oh yes the famous state of Colorado UK.

UK driving licences do not look like that, they don't have US states on them (major clue), are green, and if the person in the photo actually looks like a living human and not corpse, it gets sent back as unacceptable.

Oh aye, I am the #1 government truster, they should "not record" where I visit and should be trusted to ignore my internet history

The reason that up until now an app like that hasn't existed is because it is an absolutely awful idea if you spend more than 10 seconds thinking about it.

It's ripe for abuse in fact I would be surprised if even half of the reports are legitimate. Isn't absolutely god awful system and whoever thought this up is an absolute prat, who seriously needs to get outside and actually experience real life and real people.

Oh, so they started requiring that in the last couple days?

Jesus you definitely need to get out more.

Yeah it has to be that way otherwise all these venture capital funded businesses that never actually make a profit could just do whatever they want, and considering that's basically every startup it would essentially neuter to the law.

Whoopsie.
What goes around comes around.

If I had to choose between a government and a private entity to store my personal governmental records (e.g. age and name), I'd 100% choose the government first.

No idea why they were collecting identification then.

Even worse, since the hackers got a bunch of the data at once, the company must have held onto those pictures long after they registered people to their service, which they likely didn't need to do.

The app required ID uploads ostensibly to verify that you were a woman signing up, men were not allowed to join for obvious reasons
