TeaOnHer Experiences Major Data Breach: Leaked Drivers Licenses and Private Messages

TeaOnHer, a dating review application designed for men to anonymously share experiences about women they’ve dated, recently faced a significant security breach that compromised sensitive user data.

This incident reportedly exposed a range of personal information, including driver’s licenses, selfies, email addresses, and private messages. Security experts have indicated that this data was accessible to the public until just a few weeks ago.

Following the initial report by TechCrunch, the vulnerability was addressed promptly, within a week. At the time of the breach, TeaOnHer was notably the second most downloaded free app on Apple’s App Store.

Following Trends in Data Security Breaches

The recent breach at TeaOnHer occurs shortly after a comparable incident involving the women-oriented Tea app, which operates on a similar review-based model. Just weeks before, Tea experienced a data leak that involved identification documents and personal details of users.

Furthermore, days following the initial breach, Tea had to disable direct messaging features on their platform after discovering that over 1.1 million private messages were also exposed in a second security vulnerability.

Both apps are now under intense scrutiny, with users contemplating the possibility of a class-action lawsuit against their developers due to the breaches. The issue raises substantial concerns regarding user privacy in the digital dating landscape.

So far, Newville Media Corporation, the developer behind TeaOnHer, has not issued any public comments regarding the flaw. Reports indicate that The Independent was unsuccessful in reaching them via email for further clarification.
