NEW JERSEY LAW JOURNAL- Aug 12 - Grindr is battling a suit brought by a man who alleges the site’s lax age restrictions led him to have a liaison with an underage boy, for which he now faces criminal charges. According to the suit, the 13-year-old was allowed to become a paying member of Grindr even though the site restricts access for persons under age 18. The suit alleges Grindr was negligent for failing to ensure that its members are over the age of majority and for negligently training its employees, agents and representatives. Grindr has filed a motion to dismiss based on the Communications Decency Act that immunizes providers of interactive computer services against liability for information provided by other parties.
