In both Sulli Deal and Bulli Bai applications, photos of women were allegedly uploaded without their consent and inappropriate remarks were passed against them. Both the apps used the hosting platform ‘GITHUB’ to auction the stolen photos. ‘Sulli deal” is a year-old case whereas “Bulli Bai” surfaced last month.
