\u201cI\u2019d like to ask you to go out with me but\u00a0I am afraid you\u2019ll make fun of me\u201d<\/strong>. That\u2019s the first note I received from the Leak<\/a>, an anonymous email service, which is so far not as hurtful. That could be anyone but this specific note was from a friend of a friend<\/strong>. And if your social circle is way too big, now it\u2019s on you to hunt down that friend.<\/p>\n

However the web based Leak requires no registration. Just type your shy confession, love note or some bust words; write the receivers email address and in from mention who you are and send it away. The best thing about the Leak is that there is no replying back. You just send an anonymous message from the internet tagged with your relationship to the sender: friend, co-worker, family, friend of a friend or simply, most mysteriously, “someone.”<\/p>\n

When Leak’s creator, Laurent Desserrey\u00a0talked to\u00a0Fast Company, he said he wanted to create a \u201creally positive and exciting tool. And, due to its simplicity, it only took a weekend to build.\u00a0While\u00a0users can (and probably will) send negative leaks, Desserrey added that it “really not what the product is about. It’s about saying the truth you’re ashamed to say\u201d. Well besides that as simple as it looks it can be used to harm people specially. But to avoid that there is a well mention DOs and DONTs<\/a> terms right before the send button. It shows you that you should be polite, don\u2019t send spam and should not expose people\u2019s private information. Barring IP addresses, it could prove hard for the service to stop (or ban) anyone that doesn’t follow the site’s philosophies.<\/p>\n
