#womenssafety — Public Fediverse posts

Reminder for everyone:

If a woman tells you to not DM because you are a total stranger man, the right thing to do is to respect that personal boundary. The wrong thing to do is to keep sending DMs, trying to convince any woman to drop her online safety boundaries.

This disrespectful crap happens to me & many other women I know here, at least once/month. It's not cool. It will get you blocked by many women(plus blocked by folks who do respect women).

Respect safety boundaries. It is not that difficult.

Demand for single-gender spaces, including bars, gyms and co-working hubs, is rising in China as women gain economic power and prioritise peace of mind and safety. Women-only community spaces in China offer a safe environment where women can freely discuss intimate matters, seek support and escape harassment. Economic independence and educational opportunities are enabling women to focus on their own needs, while social media, especially RedNote, has exposed many to alternative lifestyles and communities.

7. Who asked for this? (Yes, I ask that question everywhere. What is the demand to which all this is the supply? Please don't say 'supply creates demand' unless you are the narcos.)

8. What is the threat model that the system in the Rules addresses? Is that the threat model for the most significant quantum of fraud in India as the source & destination of fraud?

4 out of the 7 cities ranked the safest for women in India in a recent survey of the National Commission for Women are in northeastern India. From my time in these places, I can see why.

The NCW is a body of the Indian government. The survey is the National Annual Report and Index on Women's Safety 2025.

Last week saw a data breach with women's dating safety app Tea, and today, @404mediaco reports on a second — an independent security researcher told the reporting team of @emanuelmaiberg and @josephcox that they were able to access messages between users discussing abortions and cheating partners, as well as phone numbers they exchanged. Tea is a "whisper network" where women can check out and share information with other women on the men they are in a relationship with or considering dating. "It’s hard to overstate how sensitive this data is and how it could put Tea’s users at risk if it fell into the wrong hands," write the 404 team, who say it was straightforward to find the real-world identities of some users based on the nature of their messages.

Let's make one thing absolutely clear: People who use AI coding are liable. They can't blame the AI.

Also, we are now facing the Online Privacy Apocalypse. Not only because of AI of course but also because politicians are taking the final step to literally make privacy online a criminal offense.

60.3% of #women fear going out alone due to fear of crime. It's a startling reality that underscores the importance of addressing and managing these fears.
