The Brazilian federal government have founded AN AIDS awareness promotion using phony Tinder pages, but Tinder isn't delighted about this.
Earlier on this week, Brazil's health ministry established that it have created fake users on matchmaking software Tinder and Hornet, and that is prominent in gay community. The users function appealing people exactly who boast of being seeking everyday, condom-free intercourse. One profile, within the pseudonym Alana, claims to getting "looking for males and ladies for no-strings attached sex, preferably no condoms?" But after swiping appropriate and coordinating, users would be welcomed with a very different immediate information: "understanding, it is sometimes complicated to understand who is an AIDS company. Have some fun — but manage. This might be a campaign by ministry of wellness."
The promotion premiered ahead of Brazil's famously wild festival, which begins Friday. Moreover it appear amid stressing HIV trends among younger and homosexual Brazilians.
