Dating and hook-up app Grindr says it will remove the "ethnicity filter" from the next version of its app, following years of criticism from its users.

The app currently lets people filter potential matches according to their age, height, weight and ethnicity.

But critics say the ethnicity filter fuels discrimination and that the app does too little to tackle racism.

Announcing the change, Grindr said it had a "zero-tolerance policy for racism and hate speech" on its platform.

This is totally fookin bollixed up...

Another win for the PC Tards...!!

What is wrong with simply allowing folk who don't want to identify ethnically to just not select any ethnicity on their profile?

And leave the probably 95% of folk who are happy to identify ethnically to do so and the search filter will still work fine for folk who still want to use it....

eh?

Fookin PC Tards!!!
