Grindr is being voluntarily removed from Chinese app stores because China actually has strong data privacy and protection laws that US companies don’t want to comply with. I’m sure the way anglo gay media report on this will be fair and not at all alarmist-

Also just a reminder that the literal biggest gay social network/dating app in the world is a Chinese app based in Beijing
