I hate to sound like a schizophrenic but that entire app screamed "data scam" from the very get go top to bottom and I saw that breach from a mile away. It genuinely scares me how the internet gets more and more flagrant with its lack of care for personal information. I know the means of which those IDs used for verification were breached because of poor planning on the site's security aspect (If I recall correctly, the reason it was all leaked was because it was kept in an open database of some kind that was easily accessible) so it isn't like the leak of those IDs were intentional. It just confuses me how something like the IDs of thousands of thousands of users weren't better protected.
There's something about the site, it's purpose, and the general scheme that screams red flag. Like, everything about the app was tailored made to generate and get as many people to join as possible. The exclusivity, the supposed noble purpose, the way it perfectly baits those who like to gossip and make drama. It's like that "4chan Dating Site" Duolicious.
Isn't it common sense that the only time you'll ever need or want to expose something as vulnerable as your ID to a website is if it were, at the very least, a government property of some kind like a background check for a government job and even then that's usually done in person?

>this shit is going to be a hackers wet dream, make no mistake it will be used to silence and blackmail descenters or anything the powers that be do not like.
>and of course those law makers never hold themselves to the same standards.
Honestly, it's a shame this is the direction we're going because I have a fear this is new plan to test the water for how much control they can get away with and if there's not enough push back we're going to see more countries, governments, and any other high power take notes. Protect your identity and data at all costs if you can.
