What the hell does "third grade company" even mean? Tinder probably respects your privacy more than Google.
Unless you're referring to worries about giving out your payment information to "random sites"? If so, that's dumb because it's 2019 and there are tons of dedicated secure payment processors out there. Very few companies would even be willing to process payments themselves.
Any effort to take power away from Google's iron grip on the internet is good unless you're a Google employee or shareholder.
I'm not so sure about that. I bet Tinder would love to share your data with the other IAC properties. (IAC owns Match, Tinder, OKCupid, Plenty of Fish, and others...)
As a user I would much rather give my actual payment information to a few companies, like Google but ideally this would be my financial institution, who will proxy payments to various 3rd parties on my behalf.
The only thing that the actual vendor should see is a purchase from "a Discover customer."
Hell, for most online transactions I would like to proxy the whole thing. If I could give money to someone to buy things on my bealf and put their name, address, and shipping info instead of mine and then ship it to me I absolutely would every single time.
Have you bought anything online in the past two decades? Because pretty much every online store uses a third party who processes the payment information on their behalf. Your CC info never goes to the seller. Examples are PayPal, Stripe, Braintree, Dwolla, etc.
