As if Facebook wasn't already bad enough, they've decided to launch some dating features.
Apparently Tinder, Plenty of Fish, Bumble, Match, OK Cupid, Grindr etc etc etc simply weren't enough.
Nope, Zuckerberg has to stick his meddling fingers into any pie possible, and it sucks.
If you opt in for the service, strangers will be able to stalk your profile, and that really doesn't seem ideal to me. I don't really want a potential partner to be digging into a decade of my history before we even say hello to each other.
Anyway, if you like what you see, you'll be able to contact said individual through a separate messaging app. No doubt this will be a new-to-download app, bloated with targeted advertising and other kinds of nasty things to spy on your every move.
If there's one redeeming feature, rumour has it that your current 'friends' won't be able to see that you've opted in for the dating features. I guess that would save people a bit of embarrassment.
Honestly, I'm just so sick of Facebook. I think it's time to convince friends and family to move over to Steemit so we can all get rid of our profiles once and for all.
Will you be making use of the new features? Let me know below.
