The group then reportedly used this intelligence to <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2023\/03\/10\/catholic_clergy_surveillance\/\" rel=\"noopener\">out a priest<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, 80 percent of the dating apps say they may share or sell users&#8217; personal information for advertising.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"adun\" id=\"story_eagle_xsm_sm_md_xmd_lg_xlg\" data-pos=\"mid\" data-raptor=\"eagle\" data-xsm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-sm=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-md=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xmd=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-lg=\",mpu,dmpu,\" data-xlg=\",mpu,dmpu,\"> <noscript> <a href=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/jump?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33ZjaIp42G7j0SebpzwHtQ7wAAANI&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/pubads.g.doubleclick.net\/gampad\/ad?co=1&amp;iu=\/6978\/reg_security\/front&amp;sz=300x50%7C300x100%7C300x250%7C300x251%7C300x252%7C300x600%7C300x601&amp;tile=3&amp;c=33ZjaIp42G7j0SebpzwHtQ7wAAANI&amp;t=ct%3Dns%26unitnum%3D3%26raptor%3Deagle%26pos%3Dmid%26test%3D0\" alt> <\/a> <\/noscript> <\/div>\n<p>Also of concern to the folks at Mozilla \u2014 or anyone worried about the intersection of privacy and artificial intelligence \u2014 is that half of the reviewed dating apps are already using AI, and most of them plan to integrate this tech in the future. Some of these may be used for good or at least be useful, such as <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/foundation.mozilla.org\/privacynotincluded\/bumble\/\">Bumble<\/a>&#8216;s Deception Detector or an AI-based feature on <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/foundation.mozilla.org\/privacynotincluded\/tinder\/\">Tinder<\/a> to help select a profile picture.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But privacy wise, AI is a bit of a can of worms,&#8221; MacDonald said. &#8220;Two of the major players, and two of the groups that we&#8217;re most concerned about, Grindr and Match Group, have both stated their intention to invest in AI in the future.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Match, the biggest dating app in the world that owns a ton of other sites including Tinder, OkCupid, Hinge, and Plenty of Fish, sparked up a relationship with OpenAI shortly after Valentine&#8217;s Day.<\/p>\n<p>But considering Match Group&#8217;s track record, Moz&#8217;s privacy team says OpenAI should have swiped left.<\/p>\n<p>In 2022, the US Federal Trade Commission began investigating an alleged data-sharing deal between Match Group-owned OkCupid and AI firm Clarifai AI, after OkCupid images were <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2019\/07\/13\/technology\/databases-faces-facial-recognition-technology.html\">reportedly used<\/a> to train facial recognition software.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We don&#8217;t necessarily trust them to tackle that integration with the kind of care that they would need to, to really ensure that their users&#8217; agency is respected and that their privacy is protected,&#8221; MacDonald said. \u00ae<\/p>\n<p> READ MORE <a
