Women’s ‘red flag’ app Tea is a privacy nightmare

Title: "Tea" App Raises Privacy Concerns for Women Users Summary: The "Tea" app, designed to help women identify "red flags" in potential dating partners, has been compromised, putting its mostly female users at risk. According to a report by 404 Media, the app was hacked by 4chan users, resulting in the exposure of users' selfies, driver's licenses, and private messages discussing sensitive topics like infidelity and abortion. The app was created by software developer Sean Cook, who was inspired by his mother's "terrifying" dating experiences. However, the app's focus on anonymity and the sharing of personal information has made it a "privacy nightmare" for its users, as hackers have been able to access and exploit this sensitive data.
