Tea app, which went viral for its concept of a ‘safe place’ for women to talk about men, faced a massive data breach
A vulnerability in the Tea app has been discovered that allowed users to download the personal information of everyone on the app.
The Tea dating app, designed as a women-only safety platform, is facing intense backlash after a major data breach exposed 72,000 user images. The leak, reportedly shared on 4chan, includes verification selfies and government IDs.
Tea, an app where women can swap information about men, went viral this week, riding a flood of attention on social media. It soon rocketed to the No. 1 slot in the Apple App Store’s lifestyle category, and then, promptly, the app was hacked.
