Are Dating Apps Allowing In Registered Sex Offenders? A House Subcommittee Is Investigating
A House subcommittee is investigating popular dating services such as Tinder and Bumble for allegedly allowing minors and sex offenders to use their services.
Bumble, Grindr, The Meet Group and the Match Group, which owns such popular services as Tinder, Match.com and OkCupid, are the current targets of the investigation by the U.S. House Oversight and Reform subcommittee on economic and consumer policy.
In separate letters Thursday to the companies, the subcommittee is seeking information on users’ ages, procedures for verifying ages, and any complaints about assaults, rape or the use of the services by minors. It is also asking for the services’ privacy policies and details on what users see when they review and agree to the policies.
Although the minimum age for using internet services is typically 13 in the U.S., dating services generally require users to be at least 18 because of concerns about sexual predators.

Unfortunately that’s the way it’s been done there was a prostitution setup to catch men who are going to use prostitutes and that’s how they did it they had someone as a prostitute who wasn’t they staged it but then they caught people so they did it that way to catch people on the sites I would stage myself as a 14-year-old to catch any of these dirty predators I would do it I have too much experience my mind is mentally unwell from being manipulated by a sexual offender and the tricks that they use are so mentally and emotionally manipulating that you fall in and I’ll do what I can to stop them even if it means saying I’m a 14-year-old and posting a made-up picture just to catch those dirty sick people and about people going on there that are sexual offenders if it’s no problem what are sexual offenders going back on sex sites for if they’ve been rehabilitated they wouldn’t even be there if they’d be rehabilitated that is an addiction and they’re going back to the addiction it’s a sickness and they’re going back to the sickness so they should not be allowed in any of these sites ever again because there’s something in their brain that does not work and also the women should be screened because these are victims of sex trafficking the go on those sites to make money or just because they’re so screwed up from being exploited that they should be helped not put on a sex platform again
Look up the three “Columbia Journalism Investigations” reporters, and not one of them has actual journalist experience. What a shocker, huh?
“A House Subcommittee Is Investigating…”
Herein lies the root of the problem. What a sad day it is for Amerikkka when government squanders its resources on a beleaguered population already under a microscope, and to create more “sex offenders” to add to the one million already on the registry. Instead of tackling real issues, like homelessness, the unemployable, and poverty, big government wants to expand Amerikkka’s “criminal class.”
Since 9/11, our rights and freedoms have been eroding at a staggering pace. Our floundering fathers would not recognize Amerikkka in its current incarnation. So sorry to report that we are already living in a dystopian police state. Things will only get worse.
Maybe they are just investigating to find out if minors are really using these sites to look for random adult strangers to hook up with, as law enforcement has claimed to justify why they look for “child predators” on adult sites. This investigation should be good thing (if it is an honest one) because it could put an end to these nonsense sex sting operations where many innocent individuals have been manipulated and trapped on adult sites and labeled as “child predators”, for the sole purposes of money and the appearance of catching “child predators”. Maybe someone is really interested in the real truth about it.
