So is it removed from the appatore yet? Or does it need some motivation?
Can it be flagged or something? That could get it removed.
This shit is pretty fucked up.
i reported it as doxing, looks like they're recording names and addresses. maybe those in the EU can raise gdpr concerns?
I don't know the details of this app, but if it's specifically US streets and notes on households there, then GDPR does not apply, as they're not mapping EU households. GDPR is only invoked if the personal information of Europeans is at risk.
The California Consumer Protection Act would cover this for California Residents.
