Users were exposed to a data leak by an app that aimed to out and dox critics of Charlie Kirk as his loyalists sought out lefties for political persecution. The app, “Cancel the Hate,” has since been removed from download.

Straight Arrow News reported the findings on Tuesday, explaining that the app launched after the slaying of Kirk on Sept 10 with the aim to “hold individuals accountable for their public words,” said its website.

Users are required to submit their own personal data, promising that they will not have their details made public. Then it exposed personal details anyway.

"The flaw in the app, discovered by the security researcher who identifies himself as 'BobDaHacker,' enabled the exposure of user information such as email addresses and phone numbers," the SAN report said. "Although email addresses were included in profile bios by default, seemingly unbeknownst to many of the platform’s users, the data could still be exposed even if privacy settings were enabled to keep it hidden."
