One Los Angeles Times investigation found that Calmara couldn’t even discern inanimate objects and failed to identify “textbook images” of STIs.

So this app works by sending it photos of your junk and it tells you if you have an STI or not. And I assume one has to submit photos in order to get matched with others in order to "weed out" people. No privacy concerns there, nope.
