According to a report, Grindr’s Chinese owners are selling the platform after concerns were raised about user data handling.

UPDATE

The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) has named the ownership of popular gay dating app Grindr a national security risk, according to a report.

Grindr describes itself as “the world’s largest social networking app for gay, bisexual, transgender and queer people.” As of 2018, it said that Grindr app reaches 196 countries and has 3.6 million users online on a daily basis.
