BTW that BuzzFeed piece on Grindr selling users' HIV status to 3rd parties is by @azeen & @sricola.

As we often are, queers are the canary in the tech/health coal mine.

What's a world where Facebook/Google could sell *your* health info look like? buzzfeed.com/azeenghorayshi…
This is really important work @azeen @ @sricola which brings up a lot of important Qs about the stigma of HIV (which we have been covering by way of the #TigerMandingo/Michael Johnson case at BuzzFeed for 4 years) and about the merging of health, tech & the state broadly.
For instance, as I covered the trial of Michael Johnson, whether or not he disclosed his status on Grindr & Jackd was something the prosecution brought up repeatedly.

If Grindr is selling HIV status, it will make people less likely to disclose/discuss. buzzfeed.com/steventhrasher…
