Hey Julian!

This shit is all over my algorithm since yesterday. Apparently there was an app created for women to talk dirt on dudes they dated anonymously and only women could get accepted to app by video verification. Anyway shit went left quick(like within a week) after somebody created a male version of the app and of course that one (Teaborn) got shut down in no time by Apple. The drama is hilarious. I missed the boat because I damn sure tried see what was up with these brawds around my way.



 

Women across social media are buzzing about Tea, an anonymous dating-safety app where they ‘spill tea’ — typically gossip, secrets and juicy information — on the men they’re dating. But the app has gone viral for all the wrong reasons.

Tea was founded in November 2022 by software engineer Sean Cook to help women feel more protected. He was inspired by his mom’s bad experiences with online dating — connecting with a catfish and even a criminal, he wrote on LinkedIn. The women-only platform became available for download in 2023 with features like criminal background checks and reverse image search, and it’s currently number one on the lifestyle app charts with four million users and a 4.7/5 star rating.

But recently, users have shown less interest in helping and more in shaming. Some videos on TikTok, where the app is currently trending, show women giving men “red flag” and “green flag” reviews based on personal preferences like attractiveness, personality and style, even speculating about their sexuality, finances and how many partners they’ve had.

Moreover, the app was designed to be private, as screenshots are impossible and women are vetted before being allowed access. Yet users have recorded posts for social media, opening the door for more potentially damaging, defamatory comments.

Early Friday, it was reported that 72,000 user selfies, ID cards and other photos, some of which have been used to verify their identities for the Tea app, were leaked to 4chan, an anonymous online imageboard. Some direct messages have also been breached, Tea confirmed in a statement to 404Media. The company also said the leaked data is from more than two years ago and that no current user data is affected.
 



 
A lot of domestic violence and trouble brewing....

I got hiv from such and such and I'm talking about it.....cool you shouldn't be shamed for having it buuuuuttt it shouldn't be a proud moment in your life because you made a wrong turn somewhere and you need to correct that behavior or you're more likely to do it again.

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.

Tea, which claims to have more than 1.6 million users, reached the top of the App Store charts this week and has tens of thousands of reviews there. The app aims to provide a space for women to exchange information about men in order to stay safe, and verifies that new users are women by asking them to upload a selfie.

“Yes, if you sent Tea App your face and drivers license, they doxxed you publicly! No authentication, no nothing. It's a public bucket,” a post on 4chan providing details of the vulnerability reads. “DRIVERS LICENSES AND FACE PICS! GET THE FUCK IN HERE BEFORE THEY SHUT IT DOWN!”

Ok.

Lemme see if I got this right:

The users of this app are getting "doxed"

for using an app, with no encryption on their info, to "dox" others?

Ok.



Yes, there really are some piece of shit guys out there, needing to be into a quantum singularity, and women need to wary of them - but the other half I suspect would have been used for nefarious purposes.

With that - I hope something is done soon, because with all these women's info being out there:smh::smh:......

They actually think they can shame men into being simps and marrying undesirable women. Well, let me tell them the truth, when a man fucks a woman many times, he doesn't know what will happen, or whether or not they might date long term or even marry. But guess what, if a man doesn't fuck a woman, if he's like me, there is no way in hell he is going to think about marrying her.
Here is a fact: you never know a woman until you fuck her at least three times, and what may appear like a bunch of men pumping and dumping these miserable women are really (in many cases) men who discovered how unfit they are to have a serious relationship with.
We men were always to ones to convince the women to have sex, and traditionally it was the women's duty to convince us to marry them. Now they want their cake and eat it too, by still making us work for the pussy, while not being accountable for convincing us to stay.
Plus, they naturally are attracted to guys who aren't looking for long-term relationships. This is the hack code that many guys who fuck plenty of women fully understand and exploit (now ask me how I know).
