I think this should be illegal:

An app should not do anything that any reasonable person assumes it does or should not. Eg, dating apps shouldn’t have access to your private messages or ‘sell’ your ‘dating history’ or preferences, companies should not construct relationships from anything other than what the user has shared willingly (specifically) etc…

As much as I love tech, I sometimes just want to get as far away from it as possible - not because of the tech, but because of the shady practices of companies connected to/in control of it.
