Tinder users will soon be able to access a background check database - PoCs most affected - literally.

The owner of massive dating apps Tinder and Match has just announced a new partnership to help keep its users safe. Match Group, which owns Tinder, Match, OK Cupid, Hinge and several other services, has made an investment in Garbo, a non-profit, female-founded background check platform. As part of the deal, Garbo's platform will be available to people using Match Group apps, starting with Tinder later this year.
If you're not familiar with Garbo, it was founded by Kathryn Kosmides, a "survivor of gender-based violence" who wanted to make it easier to find information about people you may connect with online. Garbo's platform aggregates numerous data sources to provide details on an individual, including "arrests, convictions, restraining orders, harassment, and other violent crimes." The organization's site says that often times, you don't even need a last time to find some details on an individual — a first name and phone number will work.

The organization is also working with racial and gender equality groups to make sure that inequities in the justice system that disproportionately affect people of color are taken into account. For example, Garbo recently announced that it was excluding drug possession charges from its platform. One of the reasons it gave was that the imprisonment rate for African Americans on drug charges is almost six times that for white people.

How this integration will work remains to be seen, but it's not hard to imagine that Tinder will be able to ping Garbo's database and proactively show users when it finds something they might want to be aware of. It also seems likely that this information will be available in other Match Group apps at some point, though there's no word yet on when that'll happen. Garbo cites making ridesharing services safer as another core initiative for the non-profit in addition to working with dating services, so it wouldn't surprise us to see a similar partnership appear between Garbo and companies like Uber or Lyft — but for now, it's starting with Tinder.

Any guesses on how fast they plan to exclude violent crime charges?

Fixed that for you... and good luck.

Why should i do that? People will ask question if such a woman vanishes.

Some of the fine things she's been retweeting.

And the mans name? Albert Einstein.

Guess this means no new stepmom for ol' Gay Retard.

Tinder is for degenerates, real traditionalists go and pay a prostitute

I'm really glad they are excluding drug charges. It will make it easier to drug and rape women when they don't know I've been convicted of possessing Rohypnol and GHB.

"We're introducing a platform to keep our users safe from criminals. But only white criminals. Everyone else gets a pass."

The result of this is going to be that people see white guys as the safe option, because if a white guy has a clean background check you know it's not because he was given a freebie for his race.

You know what? This would actually be a fantastic idea if they didn’t fuck it up with wokeness.

This would be a lot less annoying if they excluded drug stuff just because drug use is an individual choice or whatever. IIRC OKCupid has drug use as one of their core questions in the profile, so they're clearly not all up in arms about drugs. But no, it has to be about niggerdom.

Partial agree, I think any drug trafficking charges should absolutely come up because there are certainly people who are fucked by that aspect of the law unjustifiably, but far more of them are legitimately dangerous people than with simple drug possession charges.

I wonder if this will make women LESS safe. They are undoubtedly going to miss many potentially violent people with their search. Hell, probably the most dangerous don't even have records.

So, some woman sees on the site that the guy is ok. People being naturally lazy and complacent, she just accepts that this is a normal guy. She doesn't take normal precautions. She doesn't tell a friend and make sure they contact each other by phone during the date, she doesn't insist on meeting him in a public place and instead agrees to have him pick her up at her house.

Voila, dismembered thot.

Who could have forseen it?

Women need to learn to rely on their guts, and recognize that the people most like you (feminist men, for example) are just as able and willing to do violence on your ass - and as you said, this "screening" process is doing nothing but instilling a false sense of security and in doing so, is also diminishing the natural sense of danger women have cultivated over the years.

That's exactly the point. Can't keep the grift going and complain about "women being unsafe" if women are actually kept safe, after all!

I mean, women are already being told that taking basic common sense precautions is wrong and “internalized misogny” (strange how male feminists want to make women more vulnerable) so it’s already started.
