Nothing pulls its iMessage app from the Play Store following privacy disaster

- Nothing Chats, a rival to apps like Beeper and AirMessage, advertised itself as a secure platform for sending messages to iMessage users.
- However, less than 24 hours after its launch, investigations into the app revealed that Nothing Chats logged every message in plain text and stored unencrypted data, including text messages, images, videos, and more, making it a significant privacy and security risk.
- The company removed the app from the Play Store following these complaints, citing "several bugs" that need fixing.

LMAO, who would have thunk it? That was a very desperate attempt to make some sales. I noped it the second I learnt that they were using a mac mini somewhere to log people's iclouds. That was the most pathetic thing I have seen in a while.
Nog defending this practice at all, but a fun little fact is that if you get a Mac instance on AWS (and other cloud providers) It's literally a normal mac mini in a rack enclosure.
