If you thought it was safe to go back in the dating app waters this summer, you’re going to need a bigger boat. Security researchers revealed a vulnerability in the 3Fun site that readily exposed extensive personal information about all of its 1.5 million users, including private photos and realtime location data. This is not the first breach in the dating app space, but it is purported to have “the worst security for any dating app we’ve ever seen.”
In Touch with Your Vulnerable Side
If there are lessons we can learn from 3Fun, one of them would surely be that, in a digital world, security and anonymity, no matter how fervently promised, are moving targets. Once you step foot in the ether, all bets are off and, in some ways, it’s a matter of time until your data is compromised. We are all vulnerable, and embracing our vulnerability is the first step.
