A dating safety app that allows women to do background checks on men and anonymously share "red flag" behaviour has been hacked, exposing thousands of members' images, posts and comments.
Tea Dating Advice, a US-based women-only app with 1.6 million users, said there had been "unauthorised access" to 72,000 images submitted by women.
Some included images of women holding photo identification for verification purposes, which Tea's own privacy policy promises are "deleted immediately" after authentication.
Tea said the breach affected members who signed up before February 2024.
Tea lets women check whether potential partners are married or registered sex offenders as well as run reverse image searches to protect against "catfishing", where people use fake online identities.
But one of the most controversial aspects of Tea is that it allows women to share information on men they have dated to "avoid red flags" but also highlight those with "green flag" qualities.
The company said the breached photos "can in no way be linked to posts within Tea".
The firm blocks screenshots so that posts are not shared outside the app.
...
The company was set up in November 2022 by Sean Cook, a software engineer who said he was inspired to create Tea after witnessing his mother's online dating experiences.

Agreed. Doing things God’s way simplifies many things.
Yep...
“The firm blocks screenshots so that posts are not shared outside the app.”
Where are we, 1995? Blocking screenshots does not stop sharing
The losers they hired to write that code laughed all the way to the bank.
Dump a woman and you will be marked for life on this site
I just read the next-to-last line. 🤣

...I married one.
What if they don't "need improvement" and its just some bitter harpy posting a bunch of trash about them because she didn't get what she felt she was entitled to?
