I wonder what TinderOS would be like.

First class support for swipe left/right gestures.
Probably a super-hardened (security-wise) OS for an iPod Touch-like "second device" intended for use primarily to arrange illicit assignations.
Very few apps available, all based on zero-knowledge protocols, and no apps that are capable of leaking your real-world identity through ordinary or casual use are allowed.
As a result, just about everyone on Capitol Hill has one of these, so they can't be banned even though they are, as a side-effect, extremely useful to whistleblowers, journalists, activists, dissidents, etc.

Neither (Bill) Clinton nor Trump would have any use for a device predicated upon the need to obtain consent.
