Business Insider: “The dating app Bumble temporarily suspended its political filter in the US after multiple people tweeted about using it to find conservatives who took part in last week’s Capitol insurrection and turn them into law-enforcement authorities. On January 7, a day after the pro-Trump riot, Alia Awadallah, a woman in Washington, DC, tweeted: ‘There are DOZENS of men on DC dating apps right now who were clearly here for the insurrection attempt.’ ‘Some say it directly, others are obvious from MAGA clothing, location tags, etc. Is that info useful at all for law enforcement?’ When someone later sent her the FBI tips website, Awadallah said she had submitted some evidence. Since the attack on the Capitol, the FBI has been asking the public for ‘tips and digital media depicting rioting and violence’ in and around the complex on January 6. As of this Wednesday, just over 100 people have been arrested.”

“Another Twitter user, Allison Norris, responded to Awadallah saying that she knew of someone who had changed her Bumble profile to conservative in order to find Republicans who took part in the storming of the Capitol. ‘She’s matching with the MAGA bros and they’re bragging and sending her pics and videos of them in the Capitol. She’s sending the to the FBI,’ Norris said. Norris’ tweet was liked more than 27,000 times as of Friday morning, with John Sipher, a former CIA spy, commenting: ‘Well played.’ Another person responded: ‘Get in girls. We’re going hunting.'”
