You seem to be under the impression that real life access is the indicator of closeness of relationship. It is usually not.
Out of my set of close friends the vast majority I have never met in person. Most family I might add are in entirely separate states. Most of my IRL friends no longer live near me.

You can copy my photo, hack my email, mimic my prose style, and steal my credit card, but you can't get the people in my school's PTA to say, "Yeah that's him" in real life.

- yencabulator 4y agoImagine moving to a different country/state just before this app becomes popular. All your friends & family are now far away. Most of the people I've become friends with since my 30s have moved long distances to be where I happened to meet them. Melting pot cities like Los Angeles consist largely of people who moved there from other states! This seems like a silly design, adding a huge barrier to getting started.
