It doesn't say they can read text. It says you can look up the number texted. It's nothing new, a couple of those have been around for a while. They are search engines that specifically scan social media sites for phone numbers. It's also a website, not an app.

Their information is useless! I tried a lookup on a friend that just got out of prison and their last criminal record was a 5 year old traffic ticket. Two phone lookups produced addresses that were at least six years old. Didn't find any list of text messages, as that would be a breach of the privacy agreements with carriers!
