A troubling incident of privacy invasion has emerged in Bengaluru, where a woman discovered that her ex-boyfriend, who worked for a food delivery service, was using the company’s app to track her location. The incident was shared by Rupal Madhup, a brand marketing expert and friend of the victim, on LinkedIn. The ex-boyfriend allegedly monitored her real-time delivery addresses post-breakup, raising serious concerns about data misuse.
Initially, the woman dismissed his intrusive questions about her whereabouts, but soon realized he was accessing her information through the app. His invasive comments about her personal life, such as knowing when she was menstruating based on her food orders, further alarmed her.
