Per the Stanford Daily article linked in the OP [0], they have also removed the statement addressing this incident and supposed improvements from their website.
>Although Fizz released a statement entitled “Security Improvements Regarding Fizz” on Dec. 7, 2021, the page is no longer navigable from Fizz’s website or Google searches as of the time of this article’s publication.
And, it seems likely the app still stores personally identifiable information about its "anonymous" users' activity.
> Moreover, we still don’t know whether our data is internally anonymized. The founders told The Daily last year that users are identifiable to developers. Fizz’s privacy policy implies that this is still the case
I suppose the 'developers' may include the same founders who have refused to comment on this, removed their company's communications about it, and originally leveraged legal threats over being caught marketing a completely leaky bucket as a "100% secure social media app." Can't say I'm in a hurry to put my information on Fizz.

What I was looking for was if they really had a page that claimed "100% secure", but I don't think that was captured by archive.org
