The following people involved have great reputations, so every reason to believe them, but seriously, unless we get more technical details, we have to consider such stories to be bunk.
The app is no longer used and there's no risk from disclosing all the gory technical details. Moreover, if the app was still being used, that means it's even more necessary to disclose the gory technical details.
A good discussion of why the technical details matter:

Dawkins is trending because of the typical Twitter outrage cycle. The text of his tweet is not important, it's the subtext, the meaning that readers insist on reading into it.
Hitler was kind to animals and a vegetarian. Yet, we can't say this because despite being true, the subtext is outrageous, with people insisting that somehow you support Hitler.
Things like "eugenics" is all around us, but we aren't allowed to use the e-word to describe. Couples practice it when they go to sperm banks and choose donors with the characteristics they like. Other couples use prenatal genetic screening.

This is not a complicated question: if you know it bothers others, then you know what the polite thing to do is.
"But airplane seats are designed to recline".
Yes, because much of the time the seat behind you is empty, or occupied by a short person, or that person is also somewhat reclining. That it's okay 70% of the time doesn't mean it won't bother people 30% of the time, you assholes.
Look behind you. If it's a tall person who isn't reclined themselves, or if it's a person with their laptop out, then it's a safe bet they'll have a legitimate grievance if you recline all the way.

Cancelled over fears of the coronavirus. It's not the virus itself canceling these events, but fear. It's not organizer's fear, but attendees who will likely fail to show up even if the event is held.
Every year I don't book early for RSA Conference, I can't get hotels for less than $400 a night. Now nice hotels are available for $236/night.
Sure, the ones right at the venue are $1000/night, but in previous years, they simply weren't available at all.

It’s #Monday, I’m boozing it up at a 4 seat bar, the #barkeep is a long pourer, and I’m all fucking set if I get something stuck between my teeth.👇🙃 #RandomThoughts #drinking #OutAndAbout
Shooting the shit with a friend, she’s proud to be doing well with her plants - unusual for her.

The key was a #video explaining the benefits of pruning.

She needs REASONS. She got them.

Apparently, pruning in a particular manner stimulates growth hormones.

Of course, this led to me initiating a discussion about the #movie I just watched on Hulu, called “The German Doctor.”

The main character was Josef Mengele. #ThisHappened

People, this is why I’m known in my circles as “The Black Hole Of Conversation.” SMTH

I have reached a whole new level of #PISSEDOFF.

I didnt think such a #dark and #scary state, or level, could be reached. It may top 12-14-17's causation. It's. That. Bad. So, I've prepared a statement...

Dear @FBI,
I must implore you ask your colleauges in @FBITampa to help research this new level of #PISSEDOFFNESS. As locals, they may offer a special indepth knowledge of this new level I have reached. This is not fair & law enforcement must #investigate. No one deserves this.
This is my #apogee of #Pissedoffness.
If #motherfuckers & #tears werent a noticable level.
If #HUSH or #INTIMIDATION tactics being deployed didnt strike a chord.
If #EVIDENCE, PROOF, or 30k Bonds didnt #WOW YOU.
If posting mom with no shred of investigatable value wasnt enough...

So, I've waded through the Evangelical Alliance's new pastoral "guidelines" for interacting with trans people (ughh, the things I do to expose #transphobic #ciswits to the world), and let's just say it's time to tear this particular sh*t-bag a new hole.

So, straight off the bat, first page of text, the use of #language is . . . well, yeah, see for yourself:

"It is important to remember that transgender is not simply an issue to be debated;" - p5, #Transformed

*sigh*

When such language gets reinforced by insisting...

I’m starting a thread to document things I find in the FISA warrants that were just released. These will be in the form of observations I make as I work my way through it. First of all, the 412 pages includes all four warrants and the associated documentation.
Secondly, the first thing that stands out to me is that the FBI perjured themselves in the application for the warrant. Why do I say this? Because it includes this.
