Users from 4chan claim to have discovered an exposed database hosted on Google’s mobile app development platform, Firebase, belonging to the newly popular women’s dating safety app Tea. Users say they are rifling through peoples’ personal data and selfies uploaded to the app, and then posting that data online, according to screenshots, 4chan posts, and code reviewed by 404 Media.
“According to predators on 4chan the platform operated as what the users thought was a secure way to discuss potentially dangerous men on dating platforms with women in similar situations, this is naturally completely equivalent to exposing the women who were attempting to be safer and putting any and all private info of theirs online for predators to access. The level of risk in going on first dates with people you met on the internet is completely equivalent for straight men and straight women and it serves them right for trying to help eachother stay safe by comparing notes”
Did I get that right?
