Grindr dating app fined $11.7m in Norway over privacy breach

A fine of more than $10 million is being faced by Grindr, a gay dating app in Norway. The fine was imposed by Norwegian regulators after the app failed to get consent from its users before their personal information was then shared with advertising companies. This is a breach of some stringent privacy laws of the European Union. The fine is equal to 10% of the company’s global revenue.
