Not sure if its Google or the ACLU, but infuriating nonetheless.

    Just ran into this as well with a different app.

    I wonder if the organizations the old apps are associated with even know.

    I imagine whoever did the app dev and publishing knows, but I bet a lot of them are contracted developers (and who knows if they’re even still around)

      The ACLU is still around, but I suspect they might be prioritizing women’s access to abortion more than updating tools for police accountability.

        Right of course. But I doubt they developed and published their app in-house is my point. If they contracted some developer, who knows if the ACLU themselves or some formerly contracted developer gets notified that the app is “old” (if anyone at all is notified).

        Edit: I was right. This is the app developer for the ACLU app you screenshotted - https://www.quadrant2.us/
