ABC - Grindr is working with Aussie police to investigate three alleged homophobic attacks in Canberra, where men were reportedly lured by fake profiles, assaulted, and subjected to slurs. The app, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy for discrimination and harassment, has teamed up with Canberra's LGBTQIA+ group Meridian to deliver in-app safety messages. Users are urged to verify identities via video call and meet in public places. Police are also investigating a potential link to a similar incident in New South Wales. In Victoria, police are addressing similar attacks on gay men, stressing vigilance and the importance of user safety.
