Everyone is talking about the poor security practices, which is fair. Or they are talking about the appropriateness of such an app existing, which is also fair.
But the immediate take away should be, especially in today’s political environment, that we cannot and should not trust sensitive data that leaves our device, particularly if you are of any kind of non privileged group.
And also men are vicious trash goblins.
You’re not adding much to the “this app is appropriate” argument.
Well the point of the app was to identify the small percentage of men who do most raoe Nd stuff, and even if the law wouldnt stop them, help potential victims avoid them, so as to not have to be guarded around every man one meets like hes a potential vicious rape monster, because some just are.
Im saying all men are garbage, and the fundamental oremise that you can under any conditions act like any number of men are human is foolish and likely to get you hurt. Which i think this situation show.
I don’t think anyone questions the “point” of the app. But the devil, as they say, is in the details.
Yeah. That all men are trash; avoiding the bad ones just leaves you with fred rogers and probably a second one at some point idk.
No no, you can't walk that back now, Fred Rogers is trash too. You can't even have one.
What gender do you identify as btw? Because from now on I'm going to assume all of that gender is just as garbage as your dumb ass.
