Grindr is like one of the few platforms that do not require email verification to be a registered user.
This is definitely what attributes people to remain completely anonymous and act like fraudent criminals. It has allowed the level of spam and in my personal experience it has helped drive a campaign of mass community harassment and stalking fed by rumors. It should also be required for your phone number to get associated with your account. And no VoIP numbers. Legitimate numbers.
Because if people do not want to use their number and emails associated with them then they do not belong online interacting with society. What are they hiding?¿?!
I'm sure I am not the only person who feels this way. So why is that not considered to be absolutely paramount for the safety of users of your app. Considering the nature of the app is to connect in person more than it's not. There are people being murdered all over the world in the name of homophobia, transphobia and racism. So an application and avenue in which Grindr connects people more than typical services that arent tied to being such a social and intimate connection. Why is that?

I would really like to know the reason, if ever made aware of this to step the game up in reducing the people hiding behind their ability to be anonymous. What rewards vs. risk are people even factoring in. Because I find there to be way more reward than risk (what even is the risk) in having email verification and more identifying information needed.
