Do you worry that your digital footprint and data from apps like Grindr, including data that can be sold or shared, could be used to track and target LGBTQ+ people? The same way 🧊 is targeting people right now?

Yes, so much. And it might happen sooner than later. Recently I used one of those tools to contact data brokers to delete data. But I’m not sure what it will do. And I mean, apps/companies like Grindr, Amazon, meta, they all break the rules anyway cause there are no authorities to monitor them. Could talk about this forever but yea in essence with trump cutting so much legislation and firing agency employees…

@lav was pretty common on reddit, may have been some bot i gave my number to who wasn’t actually real. i just blocked the numbers each time.

Upon joining Collective, I penned an objection to the platform’s practice of treating linked social media profiles as a proxy for identity verification, a method that operationally amounts to soft biometric anchoring through cross-platform persona correlation.
