Let's discuss this thread in this week's #GEMChats for #entrepreneurs. What are some common mistakes that #startups, especially #fashion startups make that makes them less viable?

https://twitter.com/GEM_Hello/status/1021727181825761283

Let's breakdown the mistakes into sections of a business. These sections can take form within the Operational, Connectivity and Knowledge aspect of the #startup business. #entrepreneurship #womenentrepreneur

So let's discuss this. Feel free to mention us and let's talk!

@WSJ

Firstly, Knowledge.

Studies have found that 3 out of 4 #startups fail. Wall Street Journal (@WSJ) reported that fashion is one of the most difficult industries.

The lack of knowledge prior to starting and while running a #fashion startup can be a costly mistake.

@moinsbete

Time for a new thread. The #android #application called @moinsbete is one of the most downloaded applications in France. This app is sending without your consent your personal data to @mopub:
- location
- operator
- mcc
- mnc
- country
- screen size

@mopub

Yes, all these requests to @mopub are HTTP requests... Welcome to 2018...

@moinsbete

This is a very good example of data abuse. Every time you open the @moinsbete #android #app with location on, your location is send without your consent to an US based server owned by @mopub

@INCIndia

When you apply for membership in the official @INCIndia #android #app, your personal data are send encoded through a HTTP request to membership.inc.in.

Come on! HTTP?! I'm sure you are able to rectify this and use HTTPS instead.

Moreover, the personal data are encoding with base 64. This is not encryption! Decode this data is very easy as shown in the example.

Hi #Aadhaar 👋! Can we talk about the #BenefitsOfAadhaar for the #India population?

I quickly check your #android app on the #playstore and you have some security issues...It's super easy to get the password of the local database for example...🤦‍♂️

play.google.com/store/apps/det…

The #Aadhaar #android app is saving your biometric settings in a local database which is protected with a password. To generate the password they used a random number with 123456789 as seed and a hardcoded string db_password_123 🤦‍♂️
