MODERATORS
It's not unreasonable to think a person would want to offer some kind of live location sharing to friends. Including situations like "what if my tinder date goes horribly wrong"
Location tracking can be used maliciously, but a private app is hardly going to be a hidden app. And OP didn't ask to obscure the intent of it.
C'mon guys isn't the "hot take" enough to see this was an half joke? This post from the OP doesn't seem like what I said at all, if you open the profile you'll also see that it becomes even more unlikely. But... we should all be aware that situations like those might happen and we might get them here at Lemmy.
