Tinder’s new update let’s you see which Facebook friends use it, and people are not happy

Tinder just got a lot less private.

Tinder's new group dating future, 'Tinder Social', rolled out to a handful of users worldwide today, prompting many people to ask: "Why the f*ck do I need that?" and many others to smirk indiscreetly. One unexpected result of the update is that now your Facebook friends can see if you're using the app. Conversely, you too can see which of you mates is a registered user. https://twitter.com/jmrhadl/status/725177680438550528 By simply clicking the 'Start Group' button the feature will become accessible. It has already been automatically activated for users in the test group, rather than being opt-in. So, quick – go check – maybe your friends can see your profile! https://twitter.com/allygory/status/725206408031932416?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/chIoemac/status/725027952614903808?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/flackseed/status/725230770885779456?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw https://twitter.com/nickmenechella/status/725287750237196288 https://twitter.com/Cameron___c/status/725307204438351872 https://twitter.com/yachtyy/status/721872817407393792
