That’s a case of harassment and possibly some form of identity theft.
I don’t find your proposal tenable and it would obviously be prone to abuse.
- gowld 6y agoThat's only true of Grinder is obligated to positively ID a US resident who provided the content.
- odessacubbage 6y agothere are a lot of reasons why grindr would not want to do that. grindr is not tinder and it's not okcupid a BIG part of the service is providing psuedonymity to it's users. attitudes about homosexuality in the us and especially internationally make it a pretty significant liability for a service to start 'outing' people. if you can be ID'ed in the US you can be ID'ed in singapore or chechnya. and even besides that there's a great degree of cultural complexity at play and even in 'tolerant' places many men are discreet because they don't want to be branded as a fag. if i ran grindr i would've made the same call
