GIZMODO - May 29 - A database containing records of tens of millions of users of various dating apps has been found publicly accessible, according to a security researcher Jeremiah Fowler. The 42.5M records, which appeared to belong to multiple apps, were stored on a U.S.-based server and contained the IP addresses and location data of American users. The apps to which the data belongs include Cougardating, Christiansfinder, Mingler, Fwbs (friends with benefits), and "TS," which Fowler speculates is likely short for "transsexual." The database also contained Chinese text, he said, leading him to believe its owner is also Chinese.
