I’ve never been in a similar position; but I’m thinking about what I’d do if I found the same.

The end goal here is to close the loop hole so those affected can be safe as soon as possible with limited risk to yourself. My first thought was to reach out to either a trusted tech journalist that would keep their sources safe (keeping you anonymous), or reach out to an organization like the EFF which has a strong history of defending peoples digital rights and interests.

I don’t know if either of these are good fits for their original purpose, but that’s where my mind went immediately. I’d think either would make good efforts to close the issue and keep you safe.

They have been considering this too, but realistically this is a little known service, there are thousands of it like it, and the affected user count is only in the thousands. I don’t know if any of these people would care in the first place. I will tell an anonymous person to try regardless.
