Tinder users will soon be able to access a background check database

Great. I don’t use that crap anymore but it’s good for who uses it. I think dating apps should be validated by a phot of the ID (just like car sharing apps do to your driving license or banks to open accounts).

😂 lmaoooo omg watch a steep drop off in the male user base

They're doing this to put the liability for anything bad happening on the woman. You saw he was a criminal, so any abuse you suffered was your fault.

The number of men complaining about this yesterday in the comments of a post about this in another sub was so laughable. Why complain if you have nothing to hide? 👀

They are trying to stop women from fleeing that hellsite and it won't work.

Women are the product making men rich from dating apps, and more and more women are waking up and leaving the apps.

I saw same article on my country's site. Guess what? Men here are raging. I hate how dangerously low value (and abusive) are men where I live.

This will probably be optional but still better than nothing.

I imagine a lot of scrotes will write "not linked to bkg check platform because I don't want the government spying on me!!!"

So, last year a investigative journalism team in Australia; released a in-depth investigation in to Tinder it's a 4 Corner's report.

Basically a serial rapist was using Tinder in Queensland and the reporting function on tinder didn't work. Several women were sexually abused and the Tinder "team" as such didn't do enough to ensure this product was free from harassment and or accountable enough.

Here's the You tube link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IFFTMfp5iQo&ab_channel=ABCNewsIn-depth

Just be really careful, this feature has been added, because women have been hurt from this app, and this is a way of Tinder or rather Match inc of covering it's arse.

I'm not a fan of this app.

hope it doesn't lull more women into a false sense of security.

Platipus6 · 2021-03-17T00:14:09+00:00

Tinder IS the abusive boyfriend begging us to come back.

FURYOFCAPSLOCK · 2021-03-16T20:00:33+00:00

One guy I met from Tinder stealthed me. It should be called Raper.

We need a social media site run by FDS followers where you can rate and review men you’ve dated—from a single date to LTRs. It needs to be somewhat exclusive like the FDS website so men cannot access it and so that it will not be shut down by guilty crybabies. If anyone is interested I am willing to help develop this, but I don’t feel confident doing it alone.

ddamaya · 2021-03-17T06:22:36+00:00

Nice try, Tinder. Still not going back 🤣

_RustInPiece_ · 2021-03-17T11:33:44+00:00

This is long overdue but it still won't get me to use that forsaken app. Or any OLD app/website for that matter.

haunted_vcr · 2021-03-18T08:30:06+00:00

Hmm... I like this in principle but in reality this can be much more dangerous to women.

The way I feel safe using OLD is by removing personally identifying information and being super generic, and using a shortened nickname. Learned that one after some creeper slid into my social media profile after I didn't respond (with "i hope it's not creepy, but...", so he knew!)

I also refuse to give my real phone number until at least 3-4 dates, and definitely don't tell them my full name or employer. The less information the better.

justforfds · 2021-03-22T10:47:13+00:00

This fills me with trepidation. I don't use Tinder. I wouldn't trust them to reliably feed through information if it loses them too many paying customers. If anything goes unflagged it's too easy to claim some problem with Garbo, then once doubt is cast, blame is deflected.

"Sudden drop of male Tinder users haha! I’ve met a lot of scammers from Tinder that’s why I stopped using it.

I've had more success getting dates on POF, Bumble, and eHarmony when looking for a relationship. For hookups, Adult Friend Finder has worked really well for me."
