While I agree this would be hilarious, and would want them to do it, it scares me that it's possible. That they know who is using it and apparently keep a database of certain users whom they can then blackmail. It's probably just an empty threat though and I'm taking it too seriously.

they are literally given the data and they have to store it for the app to be functional. it should be common sense that this is possible.

its also public data unless they leak things that the app users couldn't see.

Well, the (satirical) post is saying they will "reveal" those who "secretly" use it. That implies it's far from being publicly available information.
