In 2017, Matthew Herrick, a very sexy waiter and aspiring actor in New York City, filed a lawsuit against Grindr after his ex-boyfriend allegedly created fake profiles showing Herrick’s face and addresses. Herrick says over 1,000 men contacted him via text or at his home and place of work demanding sex.

As we reported, the profiles included “semi-nude photos of Herrick … claiming that he wanted rough, unprotected sex, orgies, and drugs.” Herrick believes his ex wanted him to be sexually assaulted by one of these men.

Herrick also claims that he contacted Grindr over 50 times to complain, but the company failed to take any action other than sending auto-replies that they were looking into the fake profiles.

A 1996 law known as the Communications Decency Act typically protects website and mobile apps from being legally liable for content posted by their users. But Herrick’s legal team is trying to use a “products liability” law that holds product manufacturers liable for harm caused by their poorly designed products. The law is typically used to sue manufacturers of power tools, car parts and kitchen appliances.

Herrick says Grindr produced an app that is “defective in its design,” “fundamentally unsafe” and “unreasonably dangerous,” according to NBC News. Furthermore, he says the company’s delayed response was neglectful and allowed Herrick’s ex to “weaponize” the app.

If it does proceed, it could set a groundbreaking precedent that could hold companies like Facebook, YouTube and others liable for failing to regulate people spreading false information on their platforms.

Shortly after FOSTA’s passage, Craigslist and Backpage removed their personals sections, and Tumblr purged millions of users who posted adult content, all in a bid to avoid prosecution under the broadly written law. If Herrick’s case proceeds, apps would need to drastically change how they handle user-generated content too in order to minimize their legal liability.

But groups like the National Network to End Domestic Violence have written amicus briefs supporting Herrick’s position. Also, “the Electronic Privacy Information Center has similarly argued that the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission should broaden its oversight to include internet-connected devices,” reports NBC News.

What really gets me is that Lowtax figured out all this liability legal stuff a decade ago by happy accident and trial and error. Why isn't some company paying him insane amounts of money to be their rain man idiot savant director of communications?
