Popular gay dating app Grindr is drawing flak for a rather careless vulnerability in its service, an issue that risked the privacy and security of millions of people using the platform. It could have compromised private and confidential information of the users, but luckily enough, the team at Grindr patched the loophole before it was exploited. Initially, Grindr kept ignoring the flaw, but now, the issue has been fixed.
