The best case scenario is not only will Brianna Wu get absolutely decimated in this election but also undoubtedly arrested and exposed after the government finds out her dubious scam like campaign she is running to get pity bux.

Future prison saga inbound
 
The youtube response vids to her political aspirations are starting to appear. This one is pretty funny:

"Social Justice Goblinoid" LOL

Here's Wu's "If I'm elected...." anthology.

I like that she is always tweeting "If I am elected..." and not "When I am elected...".

For some reason this sounds to me, like she really knows that she has no chance of winning and that she is perfectly aware, that this entire thing is just her next scam.

So I looked into this app. It's really no different from any other "free" apps out there by companies like Zynga. They ask for a lot of permissions because they want to send you the most targeted ads possible. It's why the fucking app is free. Nothing malicious or predatory in it from what I can see.

It seems her entire basis is centered around them being from China. Mind you it's a large company in China with well-respected investors all over the globe. But I guess some xenophobic fear mongering from uber-progressive Brianna Wu is just part of the game.

And what would this new law she wants do? That you can't ask for access to location or contacts in your app? That the government has to approve all apps?

Its because the app is requesting the IMSI from the phone. What Wu doesn't tell you, is that there are strict rules in china with apps and that they are required to store information for x amount of days to be able to trace you. Apparently its because of the anti-terrorism laws they have over there.

I'm digging into it now and don't see it being able to grab the IMEI in iOS at all. Don't even show it being able to grab your MAC address (although who gives a shit if it does?). It checking to see if your phone is jailbroken is because the sharing option in the app is done by a different company (Tencent which is a giant respected company) and their SDK requires it to be checked.

The app looks worse on the surface because they have to use their own tracking systems because Apple's tracking system is blocked in their country. That doesn't make it predatory or malicious. And the information the app is collecting from what I see wouldn't be beneficial for anything besides peppering you with targeted ads while using it.

This story hit because some guy on Twitter claimed it was breaking Apple's TOS by grabbing the IMEI. He later recanted after looking into it more, but by then all the shitty tech reporters wrote it up without looking at the app in detail (or understanding how China works). I'm not saying people should be comfortable with handing out their location to these companies, but I am saying that this app is no different than millions of others. Pokemon Go is more intrusive yet didn't get the same warning from the Godzilla of Tech.

Also noticed Zoe Quinn screeching about this too so it must be what pretend programmers were using to look like they had a clue.

I meant the IMSI. IOS blocks it being sent by default but android doesn't. People are shitting their pants because the IMSI is tied to the sim, so putting it into another phone makes no difference.

Ironically the fuckwits having PTSD over this are pretty happy to use social media to share it.
 
Wu is really a big fan of calling herself a group to seem more important.

Pretty sure "the system" worked exactly the way it's supposed to.

And just when you thought Wu couldn't be dumber about shitting on Twitter for "harassment"...
