      I mean, yes, but does that take priority over women who are worried about their safety? There’s been women doing this over local Facebook groups for a long time. Defamation of this sort is not a new issue.

        It was defamation the entire time just because somebody made it an app rather than a Facebook group doesn’t make any difference. It was always a crap thing to do.

        Of course Tea took it to an entirely new level of stupid.

          It was potentially defamation when it was just women…talking to one another, too. This seems like a pretty solid case of men looking at something women do to protect each other, and saying “…but what about the men who could be negatively affected in some cases?” I also think the tone in which this is being discussed is pretty revealing about Lemmy’s demographics.
