Executive Summary
In February 2026, the pornography-addiction recovery app Quitbro (developed by Plantake) suffered a data breach that exposed roughly 23,000 (22,874) unique email addresses. Beyond emails, the circulating data included users’ years of birth, usernames, their responses to in-app questions about pornography use, and their last recorded relapse timestamps. The developer did not respond to inquiries. The dataset was catalogued by Have I Been Pwned (flagged sensitive and non-searchable) and cross-listed by Hashes.org. No threat actor or attack vector has been reliably established.
ObscureIQ assessment: Extremely sensitive. Exposure can support extortion, shame-based targeting, reputational harm, coercion, and mental-health exploitation. The platform association itself may be damaging even without financial data.
Breach Impact
The exposure tied real email addresses to deeply stigmatizing behavioral data, including admissions of pornography use and relapse timestamps, for roughly 23,000 users. Even without financial or identity data, appearing in this dataset creates acute risk of extortion, shame-based targeting, and reputational or relational harm, and the developer’s silence compounded the loss of user trust.
About Quitbro
Quitbro is a mobile self-help application developed by Plantake, designed to help users reduce or quit pornography use. It provides habit tracking, streak and relapse logging, in-app questionnaires, and accountability features aimed at behavior change, serving a global base of individuals working on personal recovery goals.
Why They Hold Your Data
Behavior-change and accountability platforms collect emails, usernames, progress tracking, support interactions, and highly sensitive behavioral information tied to pornography use, recovery goals, and personal struggles.
Recent Developments
Quitbro remains available through mobile app stores. Following the February 2026 exposure of user data, its developer Plantake did not publicly respond to inquiries about the incident, drawing criticism over vendor transparency. Have I Been Pwned flagged the breach as sensitive and non-searchable.
