While I agree this would be hilarious, and would want them to do it, it scares me that it’s possible. That they know who is using it and apparently keep a database of certain users whom they can then blackmail. It’s probably just an empty threat though and I’m taking it too seriously.
I mean is there anything more to this threat than a meme?
The Halfway Post is a satirical news site, so no, there is no evidence that Grindr said this or could actually do it. Still, it would be hilarious.
It shouldn’t be up to the good will of the company to protect you. We should have privacy laws.
i don’t think weaponizing being gay is a good precedent .-.
Well you’ll be happy to know that Grind r never followed through
Isn’t that precisely what these particular legislators are doing though?
exactly, they’re weaponizing it. Grindr would just be outing them.
I did not expect that. But I expected not to expect something, so it doesnt count
We need an Ate the onion
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
I was a mod, fuck that shit.
Average internet mod according to Reddit users: “I love modding, I can rule with my iron fist and punish everyone that disagrees with me! Mwahahah!”
Actual average internet mod: “Why are people posting scat porn on a gardening forum, I hate my species”
I googled it, the Halfway Post is sadly just satire :(
