I mean, I'm sure norwegian dating sites have age/location info of their user base too. I thought the point of contention was that sending this data to a foreign country was the problem. Why does keeping data in physical servers within a country negatively impact an ads business that targets users based on their demographics?

Maybe because they want to stream that data to data mining servers in the US, possibly third-parties too? I was talking in general anyway. Between GDPR, requirements for safeguarding, and Apple destroying the mobile in-app advertising ID, they probably don't feel so good. Norwegian dating sites don't have permission to use age/location info, for ads, without explicit consent, and the ToS can't cover it, FYI.
