Remember what they took from you
- Latitude implements filters to protect one dimensional text children from abuse. But because they have never heard of RegEx, it's ineffective at best and completely breaks normal stories at worst.
If you hit a filter, your input won't be sent to the AI and it will be put into a queue for manual review. - Proudly announce that they'll add more filters in the future.
- Refuse to listen to community concerns. "This is what it means to take a stand 🤷♂️"
a selection of interesting quotes from our dearest Alan. - It is revealed that they have known about a vulnerability that leaked user inputs alongside their user names for at least a month, but they chose not to inform their users.
Report as it was released on the 26th of April - People quickly realize that their filter is retarded and develop anti-filter scripts.
- Latitude realizes this won't just blow over in a couple days and they enter radio silence.
- Words continue to be added to the filter, triggering more and more false positives.
- They delete a community suggestion on their feedback forums to only moderate public stories.
- People were hopeful about an announcement on a live stream that was scheduled on their twitch channel. The stream didn't happen but they eventually restricted chat and even typed out some non-answers in the chat.
- Cancel all live streams until the 7th of July.
- Ban wave without warning for anyone using scripts that interfere with filtered words.
- Silence from customer support regarding this matter.
- Continued mini updates that either do basically nothing or break shit.
