@DrAmyPsyD@APA@7cups The man in the article was found guilty and convicted. Way worse occured on the website that was hidden by staff and leadership. By speaking out I caused them to lose their multi million dollar contract with LA county
7cups will do anything for profit over user safety & ethics
@DrAmyPsyD@APA@7cups Wait until you learn about how 7cups hid the fact that adults sexually abused teens on their website. 7cups kept that info hidden so it could keep receiving taxpayer money from the Los Angeles county department of mental health

Hey @APA could you please do whatever you did about CareDash with @7cups ? They’re making “directory listings” of providers without consent and redirecting potential clients to THEIR service instead of that provider and ignoring orders to take down people’s information.
The 7 Cups community deserves transparency. Who is reading our chats? Who is accessing our data? Why so many secrets? Why so much toxic positivity? Why so much censorship? #7cups
When teens create accounts, there is nothing requesting parent contact or consent. So they are assuming these teens are asking permission before logging on to speak with anonymous adults who are not actually background-checked. At least they check the chat transcripts :) #7cups
The 7 Cups privacy policy even states they "occasionally review" chat transcripts. Even with therapists. What they don't say is that it's unpaid volunteers and that they have a queue of chat transcripts to review if any censors are triggered or if a user blocks you. #7cups
Do these sound like HIPAA violations? Secret volunteers having access to your "private" chat transcripts, volunteers owning documents/files where users may submit personal information, easily-hackable interface? #7cups#hipaa#internetsafety#mentalhealth
7 Cups can't take constructive criticism. Say one bad thing and you're banned. What happened to those feedback sandwiches and coaching moments you so proudly boast about? #7cups#hypocrites
Remember the paid listeners to boost engagement? They're contracted and supposed to be given two weeks notice before termination as per their contract. Admin breaks contract and just locks them from their accounts without notice. :) 7 Cups of illegal activity. #7cups
That 7 Cups book is right though. CheeriSandi is always being homophobic or triggering or rude in chatrooms. No one does anything. They're a listener leader on their L account too. The community protects its own. Even if they're abusive. #7cups
Dear 7 Cups Listeners and Members, please listen when I say admin doesn't care about you. They're here for the money, and you're nothing but a number on their engagement charts. #7cups#mentalhealth
I've said it before, and I'll always say it again. 7 Cups is NOT a safe site for teens. Please don't support this site or let your teens volunteer. Too many predators and not enough security. Background checks and safety measures are lies. #7cups#internetsafety#teenmentalhealth
