A new dating app is Vintage adult movies watch full movies and downloadgoing full-blown Law and Orderon daters by running a background check on them before they get swiping. And then blocking anyone who has a criminal record. But, is it fair to apply ban literallyeveryone with a conviction, especially if it's over a petty crime?
Gatsby -- which is currently only available on iOS in the U.S. -- works like most dating apps, you swipe left to pass, swipe right to match. But, there's one rather significant difference: When new users sign up to the app, Gatsby scans them for criminal records.
According to the app's founder, Joseph Penora, the app scans U.S. criminal and sex offender databases. "If you were to just scan for sex offenders you wouldn’t ban people with domestic violence crimes, theft, etc. So we scan for both," he says.
Gatsby doesn't allow any users with criminal records, regardless of the type of crime committed. "We block anyone with a crime. To do a judgment call on each crime and to determine which crime is "acceptable" wouldn’t feel right. The app doesn't ban people who've been arrested, just people who have been convicted of something. Penora says the company updates the data monthly so users are "constantly scanned," and no one slips through the net. The background check currently takes 3.2 seconds to do, says Penora.
If a hopeful user has a criminal record then they're shown a screen that says "we need to further verify" and they will be unable to use the app. That means that wannabe users won't be informed that they've been banned, nor will they know the reason behind this ban.
Currently, the app has no measures in place to prevent the creation of fake profiles. So, users who find themselves blocked due to their criminal records could find a way to circumvent the background check. Penora says the company plans to "implement features" this summer to prevent fake profiles and that they're keen to "keep one step ahead of criminals.""We will be constantly adding security features. We can’t sleep on this ... user security is our mantra," says Penora.Better security on dating apps is a great idea in theory. But, with apps like Tinder, Grindr, Match, and Bumble ruling the roost in the online dating realm, is one app's zero-tolerance approach to crime really going to make a difference? Probably not.
Maybe it's time other dating apps stepped up their security game. But, perhaps not to quite the same extent as Gatsby.
