- jere 13y agoCongratulations. That might be the creepiest suggestion I've ever heard on HN.
- true_religion 13y agoJust to add to this. This isn't creepy because its illegal or provides something that was impossible before---actually dorm address information at my uni was available online to students. It comes off as creepy because of the way it is setup: charging men for access to women. It basically circumvents all of our accepted social protocol without any rationale beyond personal profit.
- true_religion 13y agoI think the outcry of how "creepy" it is that an app is selling men access where women live is going to overshadow any possible profit. As soon as the media begins beating that drum, Apple will pull the app to avoid bad press and may just issue refunds too.
- rmc 13y agoTreating people less favourable based on gender is illegal in many places. This is an illegal business model.
- Fizzaxe 13y agoAre you living in a cave? Every heard of "ladies night"? They get in free while men have to pay a cover, hell, sometimes they even get a free drink while men do not.
- rmc 13y agoI appear to be living in a place where that's illegal (the EU). We don't have "ladies night" here, it's illegal to charge one sex while letting the other in for free, it's illegal to give one sex a free drink.
