Quittr app leaked masturbation data of hundreds of thousands
Mar 10th 2026
A 404 Media investigation found that Quittr exposed sensitive information about hundreds of thousands of users, including minors, and that the app's creators failed to remediate known security problems.
- Quittr, an app that promises to help men stop watching pornography, left intimate user data publicly accessible.
- Exposed data included users' ages, how often they masturbate, and how viewing pornography makes them feel.
- Hundreds of thousands of records were affected and the dataset appears to include minors.
- App creators Alex Slater and Connor McLaren did not fix reported security flaws and declined an independent researcher's offer to help.
- The app was not named in an earlier report to avoid putting users at risk of extortion while the vulnerability remained.
