Within that leak, there were 70,000 pictures of women, IDs, addresses.

在那次外洩的資料裡，有七萬張女性照片、身分證、住址。

So the woman that I spoke to, she saw the map, clicked on it, zoomed in, and

所以我聯絡的那位女士，她看到了地圖，點了下去，放大，

If you've ever used a dating app, you've probably asked yourself, is the person really who they say they are?

如果你用過交友軟體，你可能也問過自己，對方是真的本人嗎？

And that's why the T dating advice app really blew up in the us.

這就是為什麼 T 交友軟體在美國爆紅的原因。

It offered women a chance to do background checks on men so they could find out if they were actually married, if they were using a fake identity or even a registered sex offender.

它讓女性有機會對男性進行背景調查，以便她們能查出對方是否已婚、是否使用假身份，甚至是否為登記在案的性犯罪者。

Hackers broke into the app and they leaked women's data and photos online.

駭客入侵了這個 App，並在網路上洩漏了女性的資料和照片。

So today you're going to hear how that breach has affected women and whether apps like this actually make dating safer or do they create new risks for men and women.

所以今天，你會聽到這次的資料外洩如何影響女性，以及像這樣的 App 究竟是讓約會更安全，還是為男女雙方製造了新的風險。

I'm Hannah, this is what in the World from the BBC World Service.

我是 Hannah，這裡是 BBC World Service 的「世界大小事」。

And here in the studio with me is Jackie Wakefield, the BBC's global disinformation reporter, to spill the tea.

而今天在攝影棚和我一起的是 BBC 全球假訊息記者 Jackie Wakefield，來跟我們聊聊。

What has your experience of online dating been like?

Because on paper, the tea app sounds like a good idea.

因為照理說，這個交友軟體聽起來是個好主意。

或者說，它原本應該要怎麼運作？

I've not had a lot of experience online dating, but

I think as women in particular, we've heard our fair share of horror stories from friends of dates gone wrong, of a guy that they cheating on someone with them, of not being who they say they are.

我覺得特別是我們女生，聽朋友說過不少約會失敗的恐怖故事，像是約會對象劈腿，或是根本不是他們說的那種人。

And I think that's where things like the T up come into it.

我覺得這就是「T up」這種東西出現的原因。

So the T up, the purpose was to keep women safe from dating so that they could share their experiences and almost review men that they had dated or men that they could potentially go on dates with to check.

所以「T up」的宗旨就是讓女性在交友時更安全，讓她們可以分享經驗，並且像是評價約會過的男性，或是可能約會的男性，來做確認。

So there were many things that you could check.

所以有很多東西可以讓你檢查。

You could check red flags, green flags, you could check if he was a registered sex of offender, if he was married, if it was a catfish.

你可以檢查警訊、好消息，可以檢查他是不是登記在案的性犯罪者、是不是已婚、是不是網路釣魚。

But there was also a lot of tea or gossip on the site as well.

但網站上也有很多八卦或小道消息。

And by catfish, of course, we mean someone stealing or using someone else's identity, just someone not saying who they are.

而網路釣魚，我們當然是指有人偷用或冒用別人的身份，就是不說自己是誰。

And we've all heard these kinds of stories, they're so, so common.

我們都聽過這類的故事，真的、真的太常見了。

And this app, it was only open for women, right?

而且這款 App，它只開放給女性使用，對吧？

And they had to upload a photo or an ID of themselves to make sure that they were women to be able to get in.

而且她們必須上傳自己的照片或證件，來確認她們是女性才能加入。

And the whole point of it only being available for women was controversial.

而它只開放給女性使用的這點，當然也引起了一些爭議。

So it's been number one, number two, number three in the US App Store for months now.

所以它已經連續好幾個月蟬聯美國 App Store 的排行榜第一、第二、第三名了。

It's hard to get an idea of the exact number of users, but

很難確切知道用戶的確切人數，但是

reportedly it's around the 1 to 2 million mark.

據說大約有 1 到 2 百萬的用戶。

而且它在七月的時候真的爆紅了。

But of course, with that virality came a lot of backlash.

但當然了，隨著爆紅而來的，也有很多負面聲浪。

So obviously, in a space where there are only women speaking about men and men can't access it, men weren't too happy about that, which is kind of fair enough.

所以很明顯地，在一個只有女性在討論男性、而男性無法使用的空間裡，男性當然不會太開心，這也蠻公平的。

There was a lot of unproven gossip on the site.

這個網站上有很多未經證實的八卦。

A lot of things that really aren't required for women's safety, that if, like, how are his abs?

很多東西其實跟女性安全無關，像是，他的腹肌怎麼樣？

And like, I mean, I saw one post where a woman had posted a guy, and

還有，我看到一個貼文，一個女生貼了一個男生的照片，

some of the comments were like, this guy's definitely gay.

然後有些留言就說，這個男生肯定是同志。

And what I saw online, the male reaction is that they were saying, like, I want to get my photo taken off this app.

而我在網路上看到的，男生的反應是他們說，拜託把我的照片從這個 App 上移除。

And there was a lot of frustration on that side as well.

Is could be what it comes down to if people are saying things about someone that could damage their reputation.

如果有人說一些話，可能會損害名譽，那就會變成這樣。

And actually, this wasn't the first app of its kind.

事實上，這不是第一款這樣的 App 了。

There was this Facebook group or a series of Facebook groups.

之前有這個 Facebook 社團，或是一系列 Facebook 社團。

It was, are we dating the same guy groups?

就是「我們是不是在跟同一個男生約會」的社團？

I mean, that's sounds like it could be a really useful tool because with online dating, it'd be so easy for a guy to just double life and have multiple women on the go at the same time.

聽起來這會是個很有用的工具，因為網路交友，男生要劈腿、同時跟好幾個女生交往，其實很容易。

But you've talked a little bit about some of the things that women were posting.

但妳也稍微談到了一些女生在上面發布的內容。

Where was the line here between, you know, protecting women and potentially shaming men?

這裡的界線在哪裡？是保護女性，還是可能羞辱男性？

It's such a gray area because on the one part, like, if it was you and me, if we'd been on a date with the same guy and you'd had a really negative experience, you could just share that with me in private over a coffee and no questions asked, really.

這真是個灰色地帶，因為一方面，如果今天是我跟你，我們跟同一個男生約會，而妳有非常糟糕的經驗，妳可以私下跟我說，喝杯咖啡就好，也不用問太多。

But the fact of the matter is, is this is posted on online for anyone to see whether that's.

但事實是，這些東西被發布在網路上，任何人都可以看到，不管那是不是。

Facebook pages or the T app, where millions of people could potentially see it.

Facebook 粉絲專頁或是 T app，可能有數百萬人看到。

And that's where you kind of get into trouble.

這就是你可能會遇到麻煩的地方。

I mean, whisper networks between women about negative experiences with men, they've existed forever.

意思是，女生之間互相傳遞關於男性負面經驗的耳語，這種情況一直都存在。

But when it does go online and it is for everyone to see, that's when you know there needs to be some way of verifying the information.

但當這些內容被放到網路上，讓大家都能看到時，你就知道需要有某種方式來驗證這些資訊。

Because otherwise the tapp in particular, where men couldn't log on to see what was being posted about them, there's just no way for them to defend themselves in this particular situation.

否則，特別是 T app，男生無法登入看到別人對他們說了什麼，他們根本沒有辦法為自己辯護。

So lots of men were unhappy about the potential information circulating about them online, whether it was true or not.

所以很多男生對網路上流傳的關於他們的潛在資訊感到不滿，不管那些資訊是真的還是假的。

But even the fact that it was up there, because this is potentially really personal stuff, it's dating experiences and maybe like one person sexual experiences.

但即使這些內容被放上來，因為這可能是非常私人的事情，是關於約會經驗，甚至可能是一個人的性經驗。

我們對這次駭客攻擊知道些什麼？

What kind of information did they take and what was leaked?

他們拿走了什麼資訊，又洩漏了哪些內容？

So the information was posted by an Anonymous user on 4chan.So 4chan is a forum site.

所以這些資訊是一位匿名使用者在 4chan 上發布的。4chan 是一個論壇網站。

It's very famous for having a lot of incels misogynist groups, you know, people that often want to do women a lot of harm go to this site.

這個網站很有名，有很多憤世嫉俗的團體，你知道的，很多想傷害女性的人都會去這個網站。

So it's really worrying that the data was shared there.

所以資料被分享到那裡真的很令人擔心。

From what we know, the anonymous user was the one that actually hacked the data.

據我們所知，是那位匿名使用者駭入了這些資料。

So essentially this 4chan user posted it on one of the forums.

所以基本上是這位 4chan 使用者將其發布在其中一個論壇上。

And within that leak there were 70,000 pictures of women, IDs, addresses, other information.

在這次洩漏的資料中，有七萬張女性的照片、身分證、地址和其他資訊。

And what this information was was verification, selfies.

這些資訊是什麼？是驗證用的自拍照。

So in order to access the app, which is completely anonymous, a woman had to take a photo of herself and send it through to be verified as a woman.

所以為了要使用這個應用程式，它完全是匿名的，一位女性必須拍一張自拍照傳送過來，以驗證她是女性。

So in essence, what happened was when this was posted to 4chan, there was a cel.

所以基本上，當這件事情被發布到 4chan 時，就出現了一個情況。

Misogynist groups online had been hating the tea app for a really long time.

網路上的厭女團體已經討厭這個交友應用程式很久了。

And as we stated earlier, there's lots of really, you know, fair critique of the app, but

而且正如我們之前所說的，有很多很公平的批評，但是

a lot of that became quite misogynistic on these sort of online forums.

很多批評在這些網路論壇上變得非常厭女。

And they've been talking for quite a long time about wanting to bring it down.

而且他們已經討論了很久，想要把它搞垮。

And you spoke to some of the women whose data was leaked.

而且你採訪了一些資料被洩漏的女性。

So both the women actually came across their information that was leaked on social media.

所以這兩位女性其實是在社群媒體上發現她們被洩漏的個人資訊的。
