@greg_rowley1 I just signed up on ProductHunt to make this comment. When I have seen the first couple of sections on website, I felt it's something interesting but later I realized how scary usedanger.com is. Flagging fake emails is completely fine but why the hell are you behind vpn? If I am from Europe and wanted to sign up on a startup website that is based out of USA or for user privacy, I might use VPN or tor. usedanger.com is clearly violating user privacy is many aspects. Forget about "bad humans" mentioned in the tagline, the platform itself is very bad and scary. Are you in your right mind when you were building this? I am about to travel to give presentations in different cities in the next month and if I use any platform that uses danger sdk, I might be flagged as "fake" because of your no-brainer features. I can't even imagine how a bad and scary platform is having a tagline "Protect your app from bad humans" but in reality stealing sensitive user info like mobile number, location, device fingerprint etc For god sake, don't build platforms that pose threat to user privacy. Except flagging fake emails usedanger.com is the actual danger one should stay away from

@intern_quest Thanks for the feedback. Danger was designed initially to solve a real-world problem we faced within our telecoms product that we couldn't fix using an off the shelf product - we wanted to be able to protect against bad actors, paywall abuse and unsupported locations signing up for services outside of the UK or US and VPN's were one of our biggest problems (amongst others). It's worth noting, a lot of businesses have regulatory reasons, like we did, that means preventing sign up from unsupported or high risk locations is a requirement - telecoms businesses are required to obtain ID in multiple countries and we often had to manually ban businesses that signed up behind a VPN that were in such locations as they would never have been approved to use the services based on their documentation and information provided. Danger isn't designed to be obtrusive, or to pose a threat to user privacy - its important to note that users privacy isn't breached or shared here - we simply obtain the information the user provides at sign up, via web lead forms etc and run checks to verify and validate the data alongside device information (We only know the name, email, address, phone number etc where the end user actually supplies it freely, we can't evade privacy and fetch it via other methods). It's this user provided data and device information that helps businesses to mitigate risks, make informed decisions and protect from fraud - it solves real world problems for countless businesses with various use cases. Fundamentally, Danger pulls together a risk profile based on multiple data points, allows the business to create their own rules based on their individual business needs and take their own stance on whether or not to them, VPN's, disposable emails or seeing the same device sign up for multiple free trials is something they care about or not - we provide the tool box, the business decides which tools they need to use.
