It would seem that `mysterious ways` was never the best security approach.
Still to impact 10M users given "It has been downloaded by more than 1 million people on Google Play, and ranks as the #24 lifestyle app in the Apple App store" does seem interesting and would love a breakdown upon that as not sure that 9M Apple app users of this. So, probably some deeper breachers of GDPR and the like going on here.

Whenever a person joins the Communities social network, the app asks if it can invite friends to join. If a user says yes, the app uploads the user’s entire ‘phonebook’ from their device, containing all contacts and associated information."
