Aussie dads fight back against revenge porn and sexting by making safe app for sharing nude photos

Quote:TWO Australian dads horrified by revenge porn have invented an app they hope will help couples safely send each other racy photos.

The photo-sharing service named HotShots is designed so pictures can’t be screenshot, saved or forwarded, and the app’s servers are wiped daily to avoid being targeted by hackers.

And, like many bright ideas, this one was brewed over beers.

Quote:Bell said the app may seem controversial, but said they were pragmatic fathers who realised that realistically, sexting wasn’t going anywhere.

“It’s always something that has happened and always will happen, and if we can make it safe for people, then that’s more power to them,” Bell said.

“We think this app is something that could help solve a big issue.”

I love the punch line .. "we know our daughters are going to be sluts, we just don't want to see them on the internet"

100% guarantee someone will find a way to screenshot the nudes within a few weeks of this coming out.

I don't want any nudes if I can't at least save and wank over them later. What's the point of seeing a bitches nipple for all of 3 seconds?

Absolutely. If any shit hits your hardware, there's a way to keep it.

They invented Snapchat with slightly more security.

But as Ambicatus already stated someone will find a way to bypass it. I give it less than a week after it's released before someone comes up with a workaround. If someone is that desperate to keep a copy, there's nothing stopping them simply taking a photo of the screen.

I was just about to suggest taking a photo of the screen. That was the very first thing that sprang to mind when I read that they had blocked regular screenshotting (which I'm sure will be circumvented quickly enough too).

I never shared some of the nudes I got from girls. I get the point with this: Look whom I banged but spread them with the face into the internet is strange for me. Just because the feelings of a guy get hurt he lost his manners.

True character shows off when someone is under pressure, out if his natural environment or emotional hurt. Then a lot of people insulting, bragging kids.

Sssssshhhhhh. Let's keep the ladies convinced that it works totally great and then use the availability of the of software to justify the necessity of sending us naked pictures of themselves and their (female) friends.


Then we'll use our secret app to screenshot the pictures and we can all wank off to them later.

It's win-win.

Let's stay positive about this great technological development (that won't work).

I get the money making possibilities of this app, but damn why do we always try to save these hoes from themselves? How about you tell you daughter not to send racy pics. Then she'll do it anyway, and might get burn for it, like everything else in life! Get her to help herself and not some app! But Oh wait this is Australia aka country worse that Canada so never mind this mini rant things won't change over there

This app is great for players who will use it to trick women into thinking it's safe to send nudes

I see it kind of different. Girls mostly don't just send nudes as far as I know. They send it to please a guy. At least this was the reason when I get nudes from girls.
So they send them to me because they like me. Or you are in a relationship but cant see a few days and she send one.
And then one day you brake up and the guy put them all in the internet.

Yeah some girls are to naive and send them easy still for me not a reason to spread them in the internet.
What a guy gain from this? Just a proof that he is not emotional stable to handle a break up.

Money making opportunity if someone knows how to code/market the app to target their security features.

Bill and I approve of their daughters being sluts!

If it can be read, it can be copied. This is trivial to hack.

I don't think it's so simple actually. If it works the way I think it works, you won't really be able to take a picture of the screen with a separate camera.

The image on the phone screen will broken up into multiple narrow lines or dots that flicker at high frequency so that at any one time there is only a small part of the original image on the screen. But your eye will interpret it as a normal looking image because it's not fast enough to discern the flickering. A phone screenshot however will just capture accurately what's on the screen in that instant - which won't be a usable image.

Not saying it's a secure method, but (presumably) the app works by doing something like this, instead of just disabling the screenshot capability.

There is absolutely no chance that the two dads who invented this will ever peek at the contents of the hard drives which store the private, nude images.

None whatsoever.

It's an easy fix to develop an app that will outwit what you've described.

A screen capture program that takes one-hundred images over the course of a minute (or a second, depending on the processor speed capabilities) and morphs them into a single still image.

This would produce an image pretty damn close to the original.

Two beta males invent technology to relieve females from responsibility and consequences of their actions.

How clishee.

Get a camera and take a picture of the nude she sends you on your phone.

There you go nude is saved

That would increase the security slightly but that would still be incredibly easy to bypass. You could either take multiple photos and combine them into one pic or take a video.

But I don't think it will be long before someone finds a better way to bypass it. By telling the world how secure it is they're also unwittingly issuing a challenge. There are hackers that will crack the code, not so much because they want to see nude pics but because they want to conquer the challenge of an "uncrackable" code.

So we lower the personal responsibility bar even lower...great.

For some reason my friends send me their girlfriend's nudes all the time. Literally at least once a day. It's almost like they want my approval or something - maybe it's a competitive thing? I'm not sure but it's very strange.

Its maybe an interesting out view how much it happen in different countries and how to people in those countries think about privacy.
Compare to European countries, Americans or English speaking countries seem not to care about privacy.

Or you guys know all the teens that upload humiliating videos from their so called friends? What kind of friendship is this when you not even can do crazy stuff with your friends because you have to fear all the time they upload that stuff?

Post: #24

LOL you guys really think pictures aren't saveable ?

Snapchat is safe ? Clearly you guys haven't heard of "The Snappening"

If data is being sent and received it can be saved.

There are apps that circumvent snapchats anti screenshot software and you can download and save video.

There will be an app that circumvents this app. It's a game of cat and mouse.

It's sad it's come to this:

"Hey Hunnie, being your father I want to make sure you're protected when you send nudes to the 20 guys you're fucking. I want to make sure your nudes don't end up on the internet, because I love you so much."

Post: #25

Hehehe.

Alll someone really has to do is intercept the data as it is being sent to their servers. Then they don't just get a few nudes they get them all.



If you don't want it on the internet, then don't share it. Simple as that.

The real thing that pisses me off is Facebook. I maybe log on once or twice a year but my family, especially my aunt, is on there non-stop and it pisses me off to know that pictures of me are put up and I am tagged when I haven't logged on in 9 months.
