Why? If you don't like it, don't use it.
Besides if somebody wanted to rape a chick he/she wouldn't need this app. They could simply wait outside close to where drunk girls would be likely to be.

Hold on. What do you mean by that?
This is clearly a horrible violation of people's integrity and privacy. It's not about "chicks" getting raped. Would you wait for a Nerds around me and see people getting bashed by goons just like that?
It's a serious threat to people's security if it makes it easier to stalk unsuspecting people. Maybe I just misunderstood you but wouldn't the threat of just a single incident facilitated by such an app be enough to reconsider the importance of privacy?
As for the nerd basher, I would expect the same treatment.
It is not about the app, but the criminal. It is about accepting responsibility for ones actions.
And yes, I would say they have every right to make a nerd basher app, if they want to (although I guess they are less likely to have open facebook profiles).
Just because the data is publicly available, it does not warrant such misuse.
