| It's a useful app, as it helps men avoid the type of women who'd use such an app. |

| How would you even identify who is on the app? |

| ▲ | zetanor 5 days ago | parent | next [-] | | The app conveniently offers its users' driver's licenses to the public. | | |
| ▲ | oc1 5 days ago | parent [-] | | It's so sad that legally you can't even say this was an intrusion. All data was already public. Probably vibe coded by the ceo who has no technical competence in whatever he vibe coded. |

| ▲ | jeroenhd 5 days ago | parent | prev [-] | | The leak contains drivers' licenses, but also location information. Someone on 4chan made a map of all the coordinates they could find and posted a public link. So much for the "anonymous" app. | | |
| ▲ | BizarroLand 5 days ago | parent [-] | | I mean, if you were put on the app by an ex, how would you ever find out? | | |
| ▲ | Fogest 5 days ago | parent [-] | | I feel like that is part of the problem with it. Not only can somebody post about you make things up about you. You also may never know. And it could end up silently impacting you. Say you apply for a job and a female HR person checking your job application decides to use this app to do a "background check" on some of the males applying. If she sees someone on their saying you sexually assaulted someone, she probably isn't going to choose to interview or hire you. And she probably won't even tell you why. And the claim against you could be totally bogus. This is the scary reality of an app like this, especially if it continued to go more mainstream. |

| Blaming women for wanting to seek out safety in this way is strange. However there is something to be said about the crowd you find yourself with. If you assume this app to be necessary, I would assume your social standards are not high enough. |

| ▲ | defrost 5 days ago | parent [-] | | Tell us more about the lofty social circles that have no psychopaths. What's the bar they cannot clear? | | |
| ▲ | throwawayq3423 3 days ago | parent [-] | | Many women don't go to bars, as one example. And you perhaps watch too much Netflix. Most friend groups do not include a psychopath. And if you date solely based on the recommendations of those friend groups, you can avoid 99% of bad things. | | |
| ▲ | defrost 3 days ago | parent [-] | | > And you perhaps watch too much Netflix. Doubtful, I'm not big on such things. I have, however, scoured decades of court documents and police records (the joys of freelance IT work) and stand by the observation that the absolute worst people can be found everywhere .. including unseen within the most milquetoast seeming circles until that day when acquaintances voxpop "they seemed like such a nice person" statements. That's drawn from real life, not Netflix. Sex pests can easily be professors, judges, police, priests, child physiologists, good Christians, devout Muslims, upstanding Jews, you name it. |

| The type not into nonconsensual sex? |
| |
| ▲ | mystraline 5 days ago | parent [-] | | How fast would an app for men, to identify false accusers, liars, afterwards regret, baby-trapping attempt, sabotaging contraceptives, and other false claims, get shut down for 'evilness towards poor innocent women'? Just as Parieto indicates that the bulk of male sexual assaults are done by a few, also indicates that the bulk of female assaults and claims of sexual assault are also done by a few. Apps like Tea only paint all men as abusive thugs. If this were done, say to black people, this app would have been shut down and a lawsuit in federal court filed. But men are OK to harass, libel, and demean. Good on anonymous for exposing this obvious double standard. And I hope they get sued by everyone. |
