I'm not going to hold it against women for having a private group to tell on predatory dudes when this existed and nobody ever faced any consequences. What We Learned About the 70K-Person Telegram Channel on How to Rape Women
Arguing that tea was for "telling on predatory dudes" is like saying backdooring encryption is to catch people spreading CP.
That's what the creator of the site said it was for.
Would you believe me if I told you some systems are used for other things than what's intended?
Sure, if you have evidence. What do you think it was really being used for? And what's your evidence?
No need for evidence. The idea of anyone being able to claim anything about a person without proof is inherently flawed. Are you saying that the app has some magical feature which forces everyone to tell the truth? No disgruntled ex can make up things about their previous partner? I would love to see you prove that.
No, of course I'm not saying that. It's a profoundly stupid idea because it is so open to abuse. That doesn't mean that the majority of users are abusing it, though, which seems to be what you're claiming.
The Uk said the OSA is to protect children. But people lie.
This is some Grade-A whataboutism right here.
Of COURSE the people in that group chat deserve punishment, and probably the same 20 years that French(?) guy got depending on who all did what.
Just because that happened though doesn't excuse that this happened. The company did a horrendous thing by holding onto highly sensitive and private data it said it should have deleted and then failed to secure it in any way, AND the userbase was absolutely vile and abusive towards men.
All three things need to see justice brought to them, and you should not excuse one just because another happened and wasn't dealt with properly.
