I know it's not feasible, but if a lot of males would just use the apps that are know to report to US authorities and input data, that most likely will raise a alarms, they would have to deal with heaps of false-positives and it would obscure the real data.

I'm in. Anyone know of any apps that DO report data?

Same, ready to poison data against fascists anytime.

I just experienced my first period as a 38 year old male. I know almost nothing about them, so this is gonna be a wild ride for anyone who reads my stats.

Wouldn't that just break the app?

I'm just assuming they use user data to improve the health data shown, if people are going to fill it up with bogus data, it just destroys whatever use this app has for women.
