TECH ACUTE – July 2 – In the wake of lockdowns, Kaspersky participated in the Mobile World Congress (MWC) 2021 event held in Barcelona on June 29 to talk about love in the digital age. Kaspersky's Senior Malware Analyst, Tatyana Shishkova, presented the highlights of a study they conducted in 2017 on nine dating apps, including Tinder. Shishkova pointed out the risks involved in using the studied dating apps and provided suggestions to the companies and the users to stay safe online. The main issue was sharing users' location. Apart from location, people might gain access to another person's private information such as photos, full name, political beliefs, employment, and so on, putting them at risk of doxing. Doxing is revealing someone's private information without their consent.
