A security breach is alleged to have occurred at Tea, a popular women's dating safety app, with users on 4chan claiming responsibility. The app, which recently topped the US App Store charts, reportedly had an exposed database on Google's Firebase platform. 4chan users claim to have accessed sensitive user data, including selfies and drivers' licenses. The claims are currently unconfirmed, and Tea has yet to release an official statement. If true, this would represent a significant privacy violation for the app's users.
