Revenge Reporting and the Dark Side of Dating Apps
Manage episode 419647883 series 2884522
Can you be ghosted by the very platforms designed to spark connections? In today's episode, we navigate the alarming trend of users being banned from dating apps without clear justification. We share real-life stories, including one from a friend who found himself unjustly ousted from the digital dating world, and dissect the phenomenon known as 'revenge reporting.' Is Match.com wielding too much power without accountability? Is the quest for love being unfairly hindered by an algorithmic judge and jury? Join us as we explore the implications of a system where one's dating fate can be sealed by a single, spiteful report. It's a conversation about love, technology, and the quest for justice in the age of the swipe.
Keep it Complicated with Jen, Lauren, and Rob:
