A 43 min video by No Text To Speech about a recent breach that exposes the kind of data that Double Counter retains, shares, and sells.
Video Description:
The Discord verification bot Double Counter just got hacked, and it’s a privacy nightmare for the hackers, for anybody that used Double Counter, and even a nightmare for Double Counter itself.
That’s because the hackers claim that Double Counter never deleted your data. And with tons of people deleting their data because of Doogle, Double Counter’s alt searching system, this is obviously a problem I needed to dive into.
And after getting access to the data…. it’s bad brother.
