Match Group Inc.<\/strong> is a $2B company with multiple dating websites and apps under its brand. One of their brands is Tinder which boasts that they have the ability to verify its users but uses only pictures to do so. Teens and children under the age of 18 have the ability to use and abuse their network, creating accounts and giving adults the ability to communicate freely with them. What does Match Group do about this? Do they have a responsibility to protect all users on their platforms?
<\/strong><\/p>

Contact Match Group’s CEO Shar Dubey and tell her how risky these platforms are and that they need to implement measures today to protect all children that may be unknowingly using their services.<\/p>

Senator Julie Miville-Dech\u00eane recently introduced a bill (S-203)<\/a> that if passed into law, sites like PornHub would need to make age verification mandatory for all users. Does this go far enough?<\/strong> All social media sites are a risk for REAL children and vulnerable persons. Let the Senator know what you think now!<\/strong><\/p>
