I think it would be great to have an app that warns women about dangerous men. I don't think it's possible for that to exist though, it will ALWAYS be filled up by bitter people making things up so their ex has a harder time dating.

[–] joel_feila@lemmy.world 3 points 4 days ago

and in facebook groups you had women ratting each other out to those men. Men pretending to women to get dirt.

[–] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 88 points 6 days ago (3 children)

I don't like this app. I don't like the idea of this app. I think the whole thing was misguided.

But let me tell you of a time when I was younger and more festively slutty, I had a few encounters that might have made me a user. Not all men, no, but after the third time a dude threatens to rape you in a park, you start to wonder if you could be doing more to protect yourself.

Remember, ladies, these days you can print your own handguns and make them look like whatever you want.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 10 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Holy crap, I never thought about that. That's a whole different take on an assassin's teapot.

[–] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 5 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I forgot about poison. Everyone should know it's super easy to make poison. Toad venom is so big right now I bet that's easy to get, too.

[–] rumba@lemmy.zip 3 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I mean poison is cool AF, but turning the teapot into a gun, with a trigger in the handle.

Wait is that an assassins teapot?

BLAM

Yes, why yes it is.

[–] Ceedoestrees@lemmy.world 2 points 4 days ago

I would like to go into business with you.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 18 points 5 days ago (7 children)

I'd suggest just buying a small frame pistol. Printing your own and making it work reliably takes a level of know-how and effort.

I’m going to use “festively slutty” in my introductions from now on

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 18 points 4 days ago

Its the working class vs the 1%, not gender vs gender.

[–] SaltyIceteaMaker@lemmy.ml 67 points 6 days ago (19 children)

people uploading puctures of others without their permission getting mad that their pic was uploaded without their permission.

but like, identification like drivers licenses is too far imo.

[–] FarmTaco@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago

Current Status: Finding Out.

[–] jumping_redditor@sh.itjust.works 12 points 5 days ago (1 children)

IIRC it's the app they uploaded the pictures to that had them publicly accessible

[–] Ebber@lemmings.world 7 points 5 days ago

Not even an app, it is/was a storage service in Google Cloud that was set up to be public without authentication or without any other security features enabled.

How is it always 4chan. Is the anime shit posting board really where peak tech literate internet users congregate.

[–] GissaMittJobb@lemmy.ml 31 points 5 days ago (2 children)

You don't need to be a peak tech literate person to have been able to accomplish this.

The level of neglect of security that was involved when creating that app should really be criminal. Door was left wide open for anyone to walk in a take a peek

[–] Fleur_@aussie.zone 19 points 5 days ago (4 children)

You'd have to be in the top percentile. There's definitely less than 1% of the population scouring open cloud dumps for cool little treasures. I'm pretty sure less than 1% of people would even know where to begin doing something like that. Part of the issue of Lemmy is that I think people frequently grossly overestimate the tech literacy of the average person.

yeah, this is neglect bordering on incompetence. at the very least Tea should be suing the fuck out of their half assed vendors.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 35 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (2 children)

No, it's one of the few clearnet sites that still allow anonymous posts without email or anything. Just CAPTCHA. Everything is deleted after a while, so moderation is barely necessary. Many search engines don't even index it. It's a quick way of reporting something interesting anonymously.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 20 points 5 days ago

so moderation is barely necessary

Heh, no. If the mods took a break for a day the site would be overrun with illegal shit by noon.

Different boards on the site have different people. Some boards are somewhat maladjusted nerds with poor social skills like /tg/ others are more technical and home to the unhinged users

[–] PlexSheep@infosec.pub 3 points 4 days ago

And some are full of crazy people. Don't forget the crazy people

[–] Electricd@lemmybefree.net 23 points 5 days ago (2 children)

It sucks that personal data is exploited and accessed, but a great thing it was discovered and called out. I wish it was disclosed responsibly though

[–] Captain_Stupid@lemmy.world 24 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Tbh, if you use the dox 3000 app, you have to expect them not valuing your privacy.

[–] RaivoKulli@sopuli.xyz 8 points 4 days ago (1 children)

"But I thought I was the one doing the doxxing!"

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 7 points 4 days ago

my doxxing is the only moral doxxing

[–] XM34@feddit.org 9 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (3 children)

Usually I would agree, but as it happened to a bunch people who were doxxing thousands of men, I find it kind of hilarious and a peak karma moment!

This was all new to me a few moments ago. After some reading, I found an interesting article:

https://www.elle.com/life-love/sex-relationships/a37288143/0168-0169-the-femcel-revolution-september-2021/

Sorry if it doesn't quite fit the sub or the meme. I just found it helpful and at least tangentially relevant to a broader understanding of these phenomena.

[–] TheBat@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago (8 children)

Honestly, if I stumbled across open/vulnerable data like that I wouldn't know where else to post that anonymously. 🤷‍♂️

[–] Fizz@lemmy.nz 19 points 6 days ago (1 children)

4chan wouldnt be it. Maybe breachfourms om the darkweb.

Then you can go on the clear web and pretend to be a random user who happened to see the post and then post that somewhere.

[–] Sprocketfree@sh.itjust.works 28 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Why? Nothing the user that accessed this did was illegal. Like here's an open s3 bucket.... Can't prosecute me for that.

[–] db2@lemmy.world 20 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Security through obscurity has unfortunately been a successful argument in the past.

[–] brandon@lemmy.world 12 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago) (1 children)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_v._Swartz for a specific example. While he committed suicide before it was resolved it does show the kind of hammer that can be brought down from accessing public info

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 6 days ago (1 children)

This one wasnt about conditions or acys though.

Swartz actually had legal 'legitimate' access to that publically funded data.

He was being attacked for exposing the law to the people, they saw it lije like translating the bible out of latin, but even more devastating to power.

I'm just upset that tea users don't allow men to access their data. I guess you're out of luck if you're bi

[–] bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 22 points 6 days ago

tea users don’t want men to access their data but tea admins did nothing to stop it

It’s also bordering on cyberstalking/cyberbullying, depending on the context. Following a few suicides, some areas have pretty strict laws about that kind of stuff. It’s also a massive GDPR problem if any European guys were listed on the app, but couldn’t access it to remove their own data.
