How is an app that allows users to post unverified and doxxing information about random men allowed on the IOS app store?

Apple had no issue mass censoring Parlor and others, how is an app like this able to reach #1 under all?

Safety for favored people, doxxing for the disfavored.

Truth.

If big tech didn't have double standards they'd have no standards at all.

There's only one guiding principle for Apple - and that's money. Dont let their privacy marketing ("Privacy is a human right") fool you otherwise.

Why don't you try uploading an app where men doxx & "review" women that they date on dating apps? See if Apple suddenly finds morals.

One could say that about any company (because "fiduciary duty", amirite?).

"Don't let Toyota's 'reliable car at a reasonable price' marketing fool you, they're all about money." Yeah, but does that preclude them from selling me an actually reliable car at a reasonable price?

		But when a company makes moral arguments ("We're better than others because of X") the bar goes up. If Toyota says that we're the car company that cares about you, we want to keep you safe from the bad actors, and trust us on making right choices for you - and when you discover Toyota has been secretly building out an ad network, in bed with Chinese government, you have to call them out. And that's what Apple is doing. Privacy is a human right, except in China where they are happy to go along with what the government wants. Google atleast had the balls to pack up and leave the country.

Apple fired its Chief Diversity Officer when she said that white men with blue eyes can also count towards a diverse workforce. A purely non-monetary ideological capitulation.

What was wrong about what she said?

	▲	drak0n1c 5 days ago \| parent [-]
		I think it was a perfectly reasonable statement. But because it does not align with a recent radical redefinition of diversity, she was fired. Apple certainly wasn’t at risk of losing money over keeping her in that role.

Sounds like you're someone who isn't dating men to begin with, and therefore don't need such an app for your "safety"

		I date men and don't think going against TOS or laws is okay even in the name of 'safety'. This app doesn't bother me and frankly I think more apps like this should be allowed, but it is hypocritical to think this should be allowed to exist and many others not.

		Can't say I expected it, but surely you can see the poetic justice. A response in kind. It's nothing like the analogy you're dragging in -- SA for dressing a certain way. Rather, it's doxing for doxing. Don't dish it out if you can't take it.
