Tea App Breach Exposes 72,000 Selfies, ID Photos and Other User Images

A popular tea-themed mobile app has experienced a data breach, exposing personal information of over 72,000 users. The breach occurred in a "legacy data system" that contained images and other data from more than two years ago. The affected information includes user selfies, identification photos, and other images. The company responsible for the app has acknowledged the breach and stated that they are working to secure the system and notify affected users. The breach raises concerns about the security of user data, particularly in older or legacy systems that may not have received the same level of attention as newer systems. It also highlights the importance of robust data management practices and regular security audits to protect user privacy. The company has not provided details on the cause of the breach or whether any unauthorized access or misuse of the data has occurred. Users of the affected app are advised to monitor their accounts and report any suspicious activity.
