Users who have been falsely assured that their data is both totally anonymous and "100% secure."

On the other hand, assuming the app creators we in far over their heads when it comes to proper security, I have to wonder if they started off cordially and then freaked out a short while later because after trying, they realized there was no possible way for them to correct the issue in the given timeline. So in desperation they resorted to something drastic (and arguably unethical) to cover their asses.
