Are you worried about people using your platform maliciously to discriminate, etc ?

Hi Mildred. I appreciate this post - because it is something we are always thinking about here. Our platform is designed only for personal interactions - not for making hiring or housing decisions. If you'd like to chat more, please reach out to me at k@garbo.io

Hi Bernetta. Our mission is to proactively prevent gender-based crimes in the digital age. A history of gender-based violence is the biggest indicator of future violence. We're meeting more strangers than ever before and have no idea who we're putting our physical safety in the hands of. With Garbo, you can make informed decisions about your safety. Always happy to talk more.
