Dunking on Dating App Profiles Is Content Gold. People Are Getting Sick of It
Relationship coaches, TikTokers, and disgruntled singles alike frequently shame bad profiles, as more apps experiment with blocking screenshots.
AI Summary
Dating coach Chad Franklin, who markets his services to a TikTok audience of 512,000 followers, charges clients more than $5,000 and sometimes publishes their private messages to promote his brand. In September, he posted a direct‑message exchange in which a woman suggested she couldn’t afford an Uber, and he added the overlay text “Don’t date POOR women!!!” to the screenshot. The post illustrates how Franklin leverages confidential client communications as viral content, drawing criticism for exploiting personal information to generate engagement.
