At the time, nerve.com was experimenting with its own
adult dating section, and Bhatia said he'd uncovered a way to
download and manipulate the nerve.com user database. "They did
a very lousy job building their platform. I got their entire
user base," Bhatia told Biderman via email, including in the
message a link to a Github archive with a sample of the
database. "Also, I can turn any non paying user into a paying
user, vice versa, compose messages between users, check unread
stats, etc."
