The Tea app, that lets women review/shame men, is #1 downloaded
https://www.thetimes.com/us/news-today/article/tea-app-dating-men-women-hsdwms7f9

An app that allows women to anonymously review the men they date became the most popular download in the US iPhone app store on Thursday.

Tea, founded in 2023 by the Silicon Valley developer Sean Cook, went viral on Wednesday after more than one million women signed up in the past week.

The app uses AI to verify users’ selfies and ensure that they are women. Once verified, users can post photos of men — mainly scraped from dating profiles — and demand “the tea”, or gossip, about them from other female users.

The concept is the same as the viral Facebook group “Are we dating the same guy?”, in which women appeal for dirt on the men they date. But Tea takes the idea to a whole new level, using reverse image search to find other online photos of the men and exposing potentially slanderous details about them — fake names, double lives, you name it. The AI tool that dredges up these smears is called “Catfish Finder AI”.

Yep, an app released under the guise of "women's safety" allows women to ♥♥♥♥ talk men they dated and post completely unverified libel to ruin their reputation. Wonderful day we live in.

Apps are not your friend.

Don't make the internet the whole world.

Do your digital detox, get your face out of the phone and touch grass.

That's great advice, but women can still drag you on that app even if you do all of that.

It's pretty easy to tell who's addicted to social media, etc.

Just don't date them.

Speak for yourself. Some of us don't waste one moment on such stupidity.

You will be okay, OP. :100percent:

We had a GenZ girl come into the lab for a training session and within literally 5 minutes, she broke a test tube. :csd2smile::badluck:

You're supposed to laugh. The man doesn't care - he got to have sex.

Let the vicious cycle loop of division consume itself, let the algorithm consume those wandering souls, for they might not know what a death spiral is... :steamlaughcry:
there was another app that did something similar it was supposed to be Yelp for people. It didnt even launch before they were threatened with multiple lawsuits. These gossip apps and sites never last very long
It's a good way to protect women from creeps and dangerous criminals.

I don't feel the least bit sorry for any of them.

Until the U.S. writes some laws that put some real teeth into protecting data this sort of thing is going to continue.

The bottom line is as things stand; apps are the enemy. Get addicted to them at your own risk.

You don't really need an app for that, social media as a whole can do that sort of stuff.

Sounds more like advertising.

The other thing is it sounds like a legal liability.

What happens when the lawsuits start flying for issues such as defamation?
