Now, 404 Media reports that Quittr leaked data about hundreds of thousands of users’ masturbation habits as well as lied about its security issues.
The fuck kind of headline did I just read? Only in this timeline…
Wankr.
❌ antifa
✅ antifap
If you think you’re wanking too much, go to a therapist, talk to a friend or parents or just try to find a partner. What the fuck a computer program is going to do to get you to stop wanking.
LMAO
Holy fuck TIL there is an anti-masturbation app.
Wtf
Yeah, what does that even mean? And why would anyone want it?
Because porn addiction is a real thing and some people who suffer from it want help.
As someone who dealt for way too many years with a heroin addiction, I keep reading things like this and wanting to say stuff like ‘porn addiction isn’t a real addiction.’ But TBF I’ve never had a porn addiction and don’t know what it’s like, so I can’t say that. But there are undeniable differences.
the similarities are far more numerous than not.
porn/masturbation addiction targets the pleasure receptors in your brain and excites your brain to release dopamine.
heroin does the same thing but “louder”.
you’re not addicted to the drug, you’re addicted to the dopamine rush and feelings.
edit: downvote all you want, doesn’t make my comment any less factual.
I’m not downvoting you, but this doesn’t explain why you get extreme physical withdrawals from heroin and not from porn.
not porn alone.
I guess somebody hasn’t masturbated for 10 hours straight before. let me tell you, the backlash is insane enough to call in to work and then feel better enough to start all over for a whole new 12 hour marathon.
besides that, the withdrawal from heroin is the bodies dependency on not only the heroin itself but the dopamine slingshot as well. again, you become addicted due to dopamine not the heroin itself. the drug is simply a vehicle to get the dopamine boost.
I have always had a very high sex drive until I went on some medication that actually kills your libido(side-effect).
At one point I was consuming porn 16-18 hours a day(including sleep). I was going to sleep playing nsfw asmr glucking just to get some restful sleep. I had collected almost 20tb of content. sufficient to say, I had a problem.
my addiction was so bad that at one point I was listening to audio erotica on my way to and from work. you don’t know shame until you look at the car next to you at a stop, and there’s a disgusted mother staring you down while your car is screaming to “breed me daddy”.
Not long after I started my meds, I deleted my entire fap cache. if it wasn’t for the meds, I would probably still be doing the same shit. an app like this would have been a nice tool to keep me in check.
It is incredibly hard to believe that.
I had collected almost 20tb of content.
What were they all in 4K? 20 terabytes of video at 4K is around 7 days of non-stop content. But pretty much all pornography is not high quality stuff so we’re looking at more like 22 weeks of content. Also who has 20 terabytes worth of storage anyway?
in erotic audio alone I had close to 2tb, close to 80k files if I can remember. most of it you probably couldn’t even get anymore since the creators removed them from online.
tens of millions of pictures.
hundreds of thousands of clips/cam rips.
and probably a couple thousand HD videos.
at one time I had software that would watch cams of my favorite models that would fire up a browser and screen record their streams.
I had it spread out across a raid array.
honestly I probably could have started my own porn site if it weren’t for all those pesky copyright laws. I did write a frontend too just to make browsing it easier. it had features like slideshows+audio mixing so I could have images of audio content with visual feedback. my favorite was creators that would post both audio and images. something about seeing the person I’m hearing made it way more intimate.
I also had a collage mode for clips and video content. I would pre-select videos/clips and have them automatically fill out the entire page to maximize playing space. from there I could change the volume and size on each video. I wanted to make it so when a video stopped, another video on the list would play, but I was happy enough with looping them.
of course everything could be saved as a playlist and viewed later too.
The US speaker of the house Mike Johnson has mentioned many times how he and his son monitor each other’s masturbation habits through an app
Lots of countries have their fascists and their dictators but the American right are just plain weird.
Maybe that’s why he can’t keep up with the news? He should turn the notifications off.
Really? Is touching the ding ding dong such a big deal? I’m not saying porn, a healthy guy can find this sex drive without stimulating material.
Many Christians believe it is sinful, because generally they are uptight as hell about anything regarding sexuality.
I think the porn addiction thing is that you train your brain to seek the reward of sexual pleasure through the cheapest means possible: porn. Cheap as in fast, efficient, and often focusing on exactly what you want. Brain learns, “gee, this is a lot easier this way” and suddenly it’s more difficult to feel engaged with the more natural processes for sexy time.
I understand this, especially during the past years, as many reports (not the nofap guys on reddit, mind you) showed that porn use and abuse has been on the rise, not surprisingly. But going nofap from the state of hypergooning is also dangerous. I think they should set realistic goal and keep journaling, these apps/services are preying on the frail ones. I learnt the concept of gooning against my will.
It’s like coffee to me. My day feels a little more straightened out as long as one gets rubbed out early in the morning.
There’s really not a comfortable way to say that, is there?
i don’t know a guy who doesn’tdo that, really…
Are the app’s servers hosted on Epstein island? A father and son sharing chicken choking habits just sounds creepy.
It’s quite creepy and I can definitely picture these uptight evangelical Christian type people thinking it’s totally normal. So weird.
Holy shit
Can you believe the developers of that app are paying real money for ads for it? I get Quittr ads online and Facebook all the time. Someone is paying money to try and convince me to not to wank. I can’t imagine a bigger waste of money.
uBlock Origin (Lite) will make those pesky ads a distant memory.
The part that really blows my mind is that someone is paying for this app…
Same but then I found out that most people I know pay close to $500/year in subscriptions alone. Some don’t even remember all the subscriptions they have! A guy at my work was saying that money was really tight and he saved a ton just by cancelling his Adobe and Capcut subscriptions. That’s on top of at least 3-4 streaming platforms as well.
I mean in a way I get it. It’s easier to just pay subscription services and to have to try and deal with the utterly terrible torrent sites which by the way are no better now than they were 20 years ago.
❌ subscriptions for apps and streaming
✅ the high seas, libre software
it’s a slideshow of Republican appointees.
I am next to certain this is the app I got to track smoking ages ago, they must have thought I wnked 20 a day at work
How does it work? Is it showing photos of that orange cunt tRump?
Just jerk off. As long as you don’t rub your dick raw it’s healthy. And Jesus doesn’t give a fuck. Mostly because he is not real you dingus.
There’s no more reason to doubt the existence of a Jewish carpenter who pissed off the government and got nailed up for it than there is to doubt the existence of the Roman official who ordered the nailing.
The supernatural stuff is a different matter.
Yep seems likely Jesus was a real historical figure. Possibly an anti capitalist activist who got executed, and after his death the mythology started to spring up.
Probably some troll time travelers healed him in the tomb. New religion starts.
I bet it did.
Huh, I wonder if I should share intimate potentially embarrassing and blackmail worthy details with some random tech company who had an app
Blackmail? There’s an app for that!
Blackmailr? Shoot, sign me up! Intake question 1: Have you ever whacked it on a plane to join the “half-mile-high club?”
My cousin Walter jerked off in public once. True story. He was on a plane to New Mexico when all of a sudden the hydraulics went. The plane started spinning around, going out of control. So he decides it’s all over and whips it out and starts beating it right there. So all the other passengers take a cue from him and they start whipping it out and beating like mad. So all the passengers are beating off, plummeting to their certain doom, when all of a sudden, the hydraulics kick back in, and the plane rights itself. It lands safely and everyone puts their pieces or, whatever you know, away and deboard. Nobody mentions the phenomenon to anyone else.
- Brodie Bruce
Well did he cum or what?
If they never shared the story, how in fuck did Brodie know‽
I figure he means they all shuffled off the plane looking at the floor. Unless they all kept in touch after beating off together on a plane they have no way to know if anyone told someone else afterwards.
Eyewitness testimony.
Well, that depends, are they also charging you a ludicrous sum of money each month? It would make me feel a lot more confident sharing my intimate details if they also required my credit card. The only thing that could set my mind more at ease would be extensive biometrics
Leak? Surely they mean “unintended emission.”
Surprise decentralized backup.
IT’S NORMAL OKAY
I understand this happens to a lot of apps…
After the initial amazement, reason kicked back in: of course there would be an app for that, and of course some people would use it and share their intimate life with a company they know nothing about, because it has a bold line “We value your privacy” somewhere on its website.
“Porn addiction,” like “sex addiction,” isn’t recognized by the DSM-5, which classifies mental disorders. While porn-viewing can be compulsive, like other behaviors, research suggests that perceived porn addiction predicted distress over actual porn use itself. Yet, the idea of “porn addiction” persists in the U.S., which lacks comprehensive sex education requirements in many states; only 37 percent of states require sex education to be medically accurate, according to Boston University.
What a perfect example of how sexuality is suppressed, controlled, then monetized in the US, and the harm it causes.
Get ready for age verification data breaches like this, except on a worldwide scale.
What a perfect example of how sexuality is suppressed, controlled
You reminded me of a post I saw in r/catholicism. OP wanted to stop masturbating, but wasn’t able to overcome the urge and felt very bad about it, knowing it was wrong, and was asking advice. All the comments were in the line of “Just trust and submit to Jesus and he’ll help you”.
WTF… I felt bad for OP and other people in a situation like that.
The subtext there is basically that if you’re still not able to shake the habit, you haven’t trusted or prayed enough, and that’s why Jesus isn’t helping.
But that’s my point, everything feels so restrictive. Why is doing something harmless that you want and enjoy doing seen in such a negative way.
All the comments were in the line of “Just trust and submit to Jesus and he’ll help you”.
Stupid sexy Jesus
Climbs onto the St Andrews Cross to submit
Wouldn’t be masturbation if Jesus is helping… problem solved.
It’s like people who reply “rtfm”, except these people actually think they are helping, while the rtfm replier just thinks the question asker isn’t worthy of their knowledge (or wants to hide that they don’t know while maintaining their “I am wise” persona).
Sometimes RTFM is valid advice. Still condescending, but also valid.
Yeah, though getting useful information out of documentation is a skill on its own that not everyone possesses. But I agree that “it’s in the manual” can be useful, especially these days with how common useless manuals are.
Like I just bought a motherboard and the paper manual it came with was useless, like it didn’t even differentiate between installing Intel or AMD coolers, so clearly didn’t contain much specific information for that particular board.
The online manual had more useful information, unless you want more info about uefi settings, where you’ll be lucky if it has full information of uefi options for the release uefi, let alone the latest version.
My point wasn’t to attack the people just saying “Go to Jesus” but there whole narrative that masturbating is seen in such a bad way. Complete control and supression of sexuality, where the OP felt genuinely bad for that, and the comments simply followed the wagon.
A lot of things take decades to make it into the DSM even after identified and labeled by professionals, and a lot of things take decades to be removed after professionals say it’s not a pathology.
Yeah. The DSM isn’t the final word here. Obviously any superstimulus will have extreme addictive potential. There’s no reason why pornography would be any different than, say, junk food in this regard.
These are great points and are important to consider for mental and sexual health. I also think that the risks accompanying age verification’s mass surveillance and capitalism’s exploitation of America’s institutional sexual repression have a far greater and more harmful impact than porn and masturbation.
Of course, it’s not a bad thing that there is support for people in the form of this app, but I fear that legal policy is expanding to suppress sexuality without consent. For example, data from period tracking apps has already been used to persecute women who seek abortions. If the extreme religious right in America gets their way, could data from anti-masturbation apps or age verification services be used to help prove you accessed “illegal” pornography?
It sounds insane, because it is, but I believe this is where we’re headed in a fascist, sexually repressive America. :/
That’s who we’ve always been. The boomers and silent generation had a glimmer but we’re given treats that required toeing the line, treats they guaranteed their children and grandchildren would never see, perhaps in ignorance/myopia, many of sheer selfishness and malicious intent.
project 2025
Is this the one Mike Johnson and his son use?
I think they use covenant eyes, which sees every web page that you view and analyzes text and pictures on every web page. When there is something flagged as sexual on the web page, it sends a report to your “accountability partner”. Not sure exactly what’s on the report, but safe to assume it shows web address, date, and time that the web page was loaded.
Huge security breach to be on the Speaker’s computer.
ask his “MYSTERIOUS son”
Wha… t. Fuck, I hate society.
what a jerk off thing to do
Have my upvote and jack off 🖕😡
