A dating safety app that allows women to do background checks on men

I've heard about this site or sites like it. They allegedly are supposed to be for women to trade information on men they are dating. Its supposed to be for "safety" but the article I read says that its basically a place for women to gossip about men they dated. Is the man two-timing a woman? Does he "ghost" her after sleeping with her? Is he cheap? Is he good in bed? What does he look like? I can see why a man would hack a site like this.

Imagine an app that vetted (rated) men.

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.

Poor fellow! Scarred for life!

“which Tea’s own privacy policy promises are “deleted immediately” after authentication.”

This is a the most important thing about this article. No, no one EVER deletes anything. “Your data is safe with us” is the biggest lie of the century. The only way you are safe is to never give any data to them in the first place.

I’ve always heard that some women complain about men to discourage other women.

A woman having a “Tea” account should be regarded as a red flag. She will gossip and complain about you to other women in your area.

The developers stored users IDs (driver license images) in an unprotected directory.

The typical users: bitter, unattractive women being used for "pump & dump"

The firm blocks screenshots so that posts are not shared outside the app.

They can’t be serious, can they?

Someone could just take a picture with another device at the very least — surely there are other workarounds.

Its not a dating app.

Its a feminist male doxxing app with zero safeguards for curbing abuse. And it will be sued out of existence.

A new app has been created using the leaked photos of the women using TEA, with men rating the women from 1 to 10.

Sargon of Akkad talked about this the other day. Its a site...generally speaking for fairly average looking women in their 30s and 40s who are angry that they couldn't get more than a booty call out of men who were way out of their league.

The men talked about on the app cannot see that they've been slagged off (as our British cousins would say) on this app nor can they refute any of the things posted about them. If any of you remember slam books from when you were in grade school, this is basically an online version of that.

This is a classic example of toxic femininity. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIZHZ2j83D8

I'm unsure this is even possible.

It amazes me how picky people are about what they eat and how hygenic their food prep has to be but have no problem using these sewage pipes to stick their dees into.

Where are we, 1995? Blocking screenshots does not stop sharing

Dump a woman and you will be marked for life on this site
