    If the app was banned due to it being a scam (which is not the case)

    The term “scam” is a straw man. “Scam” is subjective, so you could define a scam as “an app that provides no content and steals your money” and conclude that the app in question is not that, and therefore fine.

    The main assertion in the article is:

    the app deliberately targets young men and encourages misogyny, including members of the app sharing techniques on how to control and exploit women. The firm has also claimed that there is evidence to suggest that the app is an illegal pyramid scheme

      The main assertion in the article is:

      It is a Guardian article. Not a trustworthy source, has a strong leftie bias and has been known to dox people in the past.

      Therefore, why should I take the article accusations seriously?
