Match Group's CEO boasted of Hinge's growth of 25%, indicating a positive trend for the dating app. However, a lawsuit was filed against the company's board, questioning its leadership in light of serious allegations concerning user safety. A report revealed that Match Group had been aware of serious incidents involving users since 2016 and had documented hundreds of reports of drugging and assault by 2022. These revelations are juxtaposed against the company's recent financial success, suggesting underlying issues may impact its reputation and leadership direction.
Match Group has known about serious user safety issues, including reports of drugging, assault, and rape, since at least 2016, according to internal documents.
The central database, known as Sentinel, reportedly recorded hundreds of troubling incidents each week by 2022, highlighting the severity of safety concerns.
Despite recent revenue growth, the lawsuit raises significant questions regarding Match Group's leadership and priorities amidst allegations of a cover-up.
While Hinge was said to be thriving, underlying issues regarding user safety are casting a shadow over the company’s positive financial reports.
