How are these companies able to operate in broad daylight in the EU of all places? I mean the name itself is saying out loud what they do.
All law enforcement and regulatory bodies have their plates full non-stop in this Wild West world we live in now. At any moment for every criminal that’s caught a hundred get away with something.
Oh no! Anyway…
Yeah, are they a malware company?
No its more for secretly spying on a partner you suspect of cheating or child’s phone activity. I think you need to get ahold of the device in question and have it unlocked to install this. Still very unethical obviously
The more I read this the bigger my smile gets. Fuck these guys and good riddance
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Poland-based spyware LetMeSpy is no longer operational and said it will shut down after a June data breach wiped out its servers, including its huge trove of data stolen from thousands of victims’ phones.
In a notice on its website in both English and Polish, LetMeSpy confirmed the “permanent shutdown” of the spyware service and that it would cease operations by the end of August.
A separate notice on LetMeSpy’s former login page, which no longer functions, confirmed earlier reports that the hacker who breached the spyware operation also deleted the data on its servers.
A copy of the database was obtained by nonprofit transparency collective DDoSecrets, which indexes leaked datasets in the public interest, and shared with TechCrunch for analysis.
The database also contained information that shows the spyware was developed by a Krakow-based tech company called Radeal, whose chief executive Rafal Lidwin did not respond to a request for comment.
Spytrac, a spyware with more than a million user records in its database, was confirmed to be operated by Support King, a tech company banned from the surveillance industry by federal regulators in 2021 for previously failing to secure stolen data from its then-flagship spyware app, SpyFone.
I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Good bot
Live by the spy, die by the sudo rm -rf/
did they try to make triforce?
Internet vigilantes FTW
Nice, another bunch of assholes out of business. Just one question: why the fk did they not have backups? They weren’t just wee little hateful bastards but stoopid on top too?
