If you’re thinking of signing up for TribelSocial, I’ll warn you now, DON’T. You are opening yourself up to significant cyber security issues and data harvesting by a social media network operated by two people with known deceitful fundraising activities and unethical practices.

It’s owned & operated by Omar & Rafael Rivero. In September 2022, they raised $800,000 for an election fund and donated none of the money to federal candidates, but donated $250,000 of the fund to Blue Deal LLC, a company allegedly women-owned but actually owned by Rafael Rivero.

Read Section 2 of the terms of service. The fine print should scare you away from TribelSocial.

Besides the Rivero brothers being troublesome enough, and the terms of services that allows them to alter and profit from user content, from a national security and cyber security perspective, TribelSocial is exploitable and extremely dangerous. Not a risk worth taking. Avoid it!

In addressing concerns about the terms of service for TribelSocial, the owner blames their lawyer.

Imagine authorizing full access to your contacts, phone, and communications to someone who doesn’t even know what their “lawyer” placed on their website.

A little bit more on the unethical owners of TribelSocial:

This is the final warning I'll post regarding TribelSocial. You can make your own decision, but I have worked in Information Warfare, Operation Security, and national security for a long time.

TribelSocial is not a social media platform you want to access or provide content to.

P.S. Do you want to be tracked?

No? If you signed up for a TribelSocial account, not only are they tracking & storing your web history & communications, but they track you when you're not logged into their app as well.

Don't believe me? It's right here: tribel.com/privacy

Did you remember volunteering to have your personal information, browsing data, contacts, and communications potentially provided to Russian intelligence and information/influence operations elements?

Well, if you signed up for a TribelSocial account you did.

The best advice I can offer from a security point is to delete your account, then delete the app. If you delete the app before your account, TribelSocial can harvest and exploit your devices, providing access to foreign countries and third-parties.

Then change your passwords.

The owners of TribelSocial are the same two brothers who attempted to launch another social media site called Liker.

Their site was easily infiltrated and a major data breech occurred giving hackers access to passwords, security questions/answers, and private messages.

This is silly. Now Occupy Democrats and Tribel are trying to appear like they’re not the same person to minimize the negative association with OD. Omar Rivero founded both and both of these accounts are run by the same exact people. They’re literally just replying to themselves.
