Would you believe me if I told you some systems are used for other things than what's intended?

    Sure, if you have evidence. What do you think it was really being used for? And what's your evidence?

    No need for evidence. The idea of anyone being able to claim anything about a person without proof is inherently flawed. Are you saying that the app has some magical feature which forces everyone to tell the truth? No disgruntled ex can make up things about their previous partner? I would love to see you prove that.

    No, of course I'm not saying that. It's a profoundly stupid idea because it is so open to abuse. That doesn't mean that the majority of users are abusing it, though, which seems to be what you're claiming.

    I can't think of any way to use the app that doesn't rely on posting pictures and personal information of people without their consent.

    I guess if you think "This dude acts kinda rapey" qualifies as "personal information".

    Which dude? How are you going to identify them?

    Their full name, pictures and location would be required or your information about his rapeyness is worthless.

    You're not going to have that person's permission to post their information and so you're doing it without their consent.
