Tinder Sponsored Video About Finding Dates on Vacation Is Raising Safety Concerns
Posted on August 14, 2019
BUZZFEED NEWS – Aug 12 – YouTuber Summer Mckeen is facing ethical concerns over a recent sponsored video with Tinder in which she films herself on two idealistic double dates with total strangers while traveling – and then saying she "recommends" doing this. Many are worried that the sponcon – published to her ~2.4M followers mostly comprising young women – is promoting a habit that could be potentially dangerous. Some also suspect that the video was scripted and doesn't represent an authentic experience with using the app.
