I hope nobody will trust them with their data after this. Just leaving their databases open to the public is horrendous. Though I fully expect this kind of stuff to happen way more often over the next few years, with the rise of "vibe coding".

Truly disgusting app
-
Its a glorified misandrous burn book.
-
-
I feel like this would be unconscionable if it was only employees with access to everything unencrypted. To just leave all this stuff open to the world is beyond the pale.

Mister president, a second data breach has hit the shit-talking app
-
I feel like we just straight up cannot trust corporate apps with our data. Time to go back to signal groups like the rest of us, ig.
-
I use encrypted apps with some regularity, but for now, I'm not too concerned about inert conversation being plaintext.

-
For all the spilling they're doing, this is some of the most spot-on branding I've seen.
-
Paywalled.

Am I missing something here? The article talks only about how user data was exposed, including the data on men being discussed in private messages. I don't see any mention about any of what's being discussed in these comments.
I get that there's probably some talking behind backs or whatever going on in the app, but both criticism and defense of it seems completely irrelevant to the article in question.
If anything, the article goes to show just how wide of an impact the breach has. It not only is a violation of the users privacy (again), but also of personal information of non-users, including relationship history and sexual preferences of both the women on the app and the men they're discussing.
-
Men mad that the app exists are part of the problem.
Non-men are still gonna talk shit and warn about ya, so die mad about it I guess.
-
Yeah, imagine men being angry that raging feminists had an app which allowed them to dox any man they want and ruin that man's reputation (and life).
Them darneded men!
-
You can tell a lot about a person by whether they think the word "feminist" is a negative or a positive
-
How?
No, seriously, how is this ruining men's lives?
Even if everything posted on this app was believed by everyone who used the app, so any man named on this app had their reputation ruined in the eyes of anyone who used it -
The users of this app are a tiny, tiny minority of women.
Nobody's being arrested based on this app. Nobody's being sent to jail based on this app. No one's even being publicly humiliated based on this app, because the app isn't public - the "tea" is only accessible to users.
The only consequence of being named on this app is that a handful of women now have a bad opinion of you.
How does this ruin anyone's life?
