On February 7, 2025, an organization called GlobeSec published a summary of the app's past security breaches on Github[4]. David Weiss publicly denounced the individuals who communicated the app's shortcomings to him. After three years of the creator's non-compliance, a 90 day warning period was given.[clarification needed]


"McToon", a conspiracy theory debunker on YouTube and a developer, posted a video detailing some of the shortcomings and issues.[5]
