I think there is a difference between people bitching in private, and it being something publicly searchable by people who just met you. One bad date and suddenly you have a reputation that follows you forever? (Assuming people used this app of course)


Oh, definitely, that's why I added the last paragraph.

That being said, I would find it a good indicator, if the person you were dating took notice of this drivel, they are probably the kind of person you don't want to be dating anyway.

I think the biggest issue is the complete anonymity which is inherently given online, even if it asked for identities, these can easily be faked.

What is to stop a jealous co-worker or an annoyed sister, or even a drunk friend from tarnishing your public image online by saying you treat them badly, or even worse, raped them, over an application like this?


Or another man. Men could use this to slander their competition.
