For the out of the loop, but also lazy:

Android app that reveals installed apps which may be leaking your location data.

Additional info for the lazy: the name of the company is "Gravy Analytics", hence the name "Gravy Scanner" for this app. It's a large data broker, and they don't bother with pesky little details like "informed consent".

Anyway, they got hacked a month ago, and the hackers threatened to publicly release all the data.

"Leak"

Bro the data is being stolen for fucking criminals. Call this crime what is.

You got threat actors using contract law in bad faith to exploit stupid, poorly educated peasants

But hey good thing they got nothing to hide 🤡
