I want grooby to keep us safe.

I don't see the difference between this and the massive amount of collectable date on any individuals or group of that gets collected. It's not like they're going searching public records, or posting home addresses - they're collating that information from mostly information that the girls have published themselves at some point (probably on social media). I can't see any personal phone numbers other than escort numbers and those aren't the girls real name either, just appear to be other stage names.
If someone was wanting to use this to be nefarious, they could easily get all that information from stuff most of the girls have posted over the years. This isn't specific to trans girls either, there are ones on all types of pornstars, movie stars, etc. It's also not like PornWikileaks which existed to post very personal stuff about performers in an attempt to shame them.
I think if someone specifically wanted their details removing, then they should be able to contact the site owner. Has anyone actually done that?

I sent emails to both sites and am awaiting a response. I'll see what they say.

It is good that your still alive and recovering. Best wishes.

there was a site called Porn Wiki Leaks run by a failed male performer named Donny Long. He abused our old system of testing and basically stole the entire database of everyone who tested at our clinic over a ten year span. He had their stage names, real names, and DOB, as well their testing history (positive tests for clamydia or gonorrhea). He then took this entire list and posted it online for anyone to see. If anyone complained about this - he used the information he had to dig deeper and find family members and other information and post that online.

That is much much worse than a website telling people which city a girl lives in.

I want to start by saying Ada, I'm glad you're recovering. I can't imagine the challenges you have and will be facing and I'm glad you're still with us. I appreciate you've had a rough go of it, and some of this thread is a response to those horrific experiences. But please remember that Steven has the ability to affect only one company's behavior... and that company is Grooby. I think you now understand this based on your recent comments, but it bears repeating for others in the thread.

With that out of the way... up until last year, a large portion of my work was doing data mining. It was scary to see the amount of information I could access about a particular person.. In this digital era, it's very difficult to avoid leaking a significant amount of personal information. On social media I see so many adult stars posting things that would make it easy to locate them.

Are you stripping your pictures of personal identifiers? Are you turning off the location services on your electronics when you aren't using a feature requiring it? Are you using facebook's app on your phone? These are just a few ways your location & identity can be found. It sucks that we have to be vigilant and thoughtful about what and how we share, but this is the world we live in.

@Wendy
Thanks Wendy. Would you be able to write up a small list of things that girls could do/should not do and I'll get it placed somewhere for reference and to show people?

[Wendy Summers]

@gs - i will take me a bit but I'll see what I can do.

[flabbybody]

I had no idea we leave so many footprints from simply being digitally connected every day. Wendy's post is a wake up call.
