Tracker firm Hapn spilling names of thousands of GPS tracking customers


A security researcher found customer names and workplace affiliations spilling directly from Hapn's servers.

GPS tracking firm Hapn is exposing the names of thousands of its customers due to a website bug, TechCrunch has learned. The bug allows anyone to log in with a Hapn account to view the exposed data using the developer tools in their web browser. (TechCrunch has seen dozens of reviews on Spytec’s online stores from customers who claim to have used the GPS devices to track their spouses.)
