Is it public info who invited you to the Clubhouse app? If not, that would assume some kind of breach, since that info is part of the leak.

Yes: that is public info. This is all no more a "leak" than the original service is a "leak" of itself.

Besides, the name, username, profile picture, etc are publicly accessible via permalinks

For example: https://www.joinclubhouse.com/@clubhouse

Everyone can see who invited you to Clubhouse down in the bottom of the profile.

It's not only public, it's central to the whole concept. You can always walk up your tree to see who the original member in your line is.
