Grindr is considering a HIV status filter that would allow users to sort men based on their status. According to Same Same, University of Montreal's David Myles posted the below screenshot in response to academic research on hookup apps.

Nevertheless, the potential HIV status filter begs the question: Would the update foster a safer hookup environment or create further barriers between gay men?
