Grindr keeps your nudez

LGBTQ+ dating app Grindr repeatedly violated state and global privacy laws by collecting and retaining highly sensitive data including nude photos without clear consent, the company’s former chief privacy officer alleged in a wrongful termination lawsuit.

Ron De Jesus says he was fired in retaliation for raising concerns about the company’s “alarming” data-privacy practices, according to a complaint filed Wednesday in a California state court in Los Angeles.

De Jesus’ accusations come after the company faced backlash for sharing users’ HIV status and was fined $7 million by the Norwegian Data Protection Agency for sharing user location and ***ual orientation data with advertisers.

According to De Jesus, Grindr allegedly retained personal data including naked pictures and HIV status even after users deleted their accounts. That information was accessible by any employee or third-party vendor, he said.

My cousin's husband worked in cyber crime and he told me Snapchat and Facebook def filter to "authorities" but he did say Grindr refused to work with them on a few cases. 

 

kek and whatsapp too. 100% too. we all had a course to pass on cyber security, the basics of it and what to and not to use.

my workplace gave us degoogled phones and we have a small, mostly unknown app for free messaging. most of us didn't install anything on the phone because it's probably supervised. i dont mind.
