As one might expect, the creator of the Clear app is someone who has had to deal with the harmful consequences of posting reckless stuff on social websites. 

Ethan Czahor, the man behind the idea, has had some explaining to do after some of his less-inspired tweets came to light.

He even lost his dream job as a chief technology officer for Jeb Bush all because of his online history.

After news came out that he had been given the job, people started digging up his past posts, and they came across the disappointing collection of tweets which led to his dismissal. At the time, Buzzfeed unveiled some shocking homophobic and sexist remarks that could not have gone unnoticed.

Due to the negative publicity he received shortly afterwards and the merciless feedback from people who disapproved of his actions, he felt the need to take once more to Twitter but to apologize and to announce his resignation from the function.

But he took advantage of the situation and the bad publicity he had managed to acquire and came back with an app meant to help people avoid similar situations.

Clear is specially designed for those people who want to keep their Internet history in check.

The app will help you find offensive tweets

Clear will analyze your Twitter, Facebook or Instagram history and root out offensive posts which you might have forgotten about and which could lead to your professional downfall.

Apparently created for people who want to present a better image of themselves in front of their employer, the app is recommended for all those who have made some hasty decisions and took to the social environment to express their opinions without weighing the effects of their sayings.

Since it could happen to just anyone, and because it’s always better to stay safe, anyone can use the tool and make sure that their social page is clean.

The app is designed to flag posts containing foul language by identifying certain watchwords, among which there is also “gay” or black, but also negative messages.
