Grindr‘s is a surveillance capitalist.
It was sold to China-based tech firm Kunlun Group in January (https://techcrunch.com/2018/01/09/chinas-kunlun-completes-full-buyout-of-grindr/ …)
Their new CTO is formerly of Facebook/Instagram.
This is terrifying, but not surprising. Another reason why we must move beyond #SurveillanceCapitalismhttps://twitter.com/laurakalbag/status/980904181149196290 …

Marginalised groups are most vulnerable to unethical technology. Stop centralising people’s information. Stop using third-party services. Employ people who might use your service to share this information, and understand their experiences so you don’t do abhorrent shit like this. https://twitter.com/phillipadsmith/status/980854541041258497 …
