Online Dating Apps: Have We Met (Online) Before? Author

In today’s digital age, we know everything about our friends through social media. In fact, most of us share everything about our day-to-day lives on social media platforms. Ask a friend what they know about you and they probably will tell where you like to eat, your favorite sport, how you handled your last breakup, and so on. Social media has made the sharing of personal information more apparent and people have no qualms about sharing their personal thoughts and experiences online.

However, for the longest time, people were hesitant or even embarrassed to admit that they had met someone through online dating. Drunken shenanigans posted to Instagram, check! Met the love of your life via an online dating app? Absolutely not! This was due to the general perception that online dating was used as a way to just find a partner for casual flings.

Thankfully, it is no longer a taboo to find love online. The increasing popularity of dating apps, such as Tinder, Coffee Meets Bagel, Happn, and so on, in the past few years is indicative of the mass adoption of such apps. Also, most of the apps are interconnected with social media platforms, which makes it hard for online users to hide the objects of their affection.

Now, what is more, important than your love life becoming public knowledge? The safety of the data that you share through these dating apps. Most dating apps were not that well protected against security threats. According to research conducted by a leading security firm, many dating apps do not have even the basic HTTPS encryption. So, if users share images when connected via a public WiFi network, other users on the network can see these pics and even insert their own pics into the pic stream of the app user. Also, it is possible for hackers to track the exact location of dating app users.

Most of the dating apps have strengthened their security and there is no reason why you shouldn’t use such apps. You should be a bit careful in sharing your personal information, such as personal/work email, social media accounts, using your real name, and so on.
