The problem with Temu is all your data goes to , less reputable third parties.
I have never had so many scam calls, texts and emails in my life!
As if it doesn't when you input it for other sources? I haven't had a single issue I can trace to Temu specifically. I get my Thai slave-mill "found your number in my phone" or "are you available for dinner" scam text once every other day regardless. Xfinity has probably sold, or lost, my information to dark web resellers more times than I can count. Heck, I get an email every couple of weeks from one of the "free" credit monitoring subscriptions I've been given thanks to breaches at Equifax, OPM, Chase, etc. that my email - the one I've had for 30 years come this spring - has been "found" on the dark web. No fucking shit; I'll bet the have my password from 1995, too. I'd worry about it but I have far more pressing things in my life - like making sure I'm not overheating the queso I just put in the microwave.
