Yea, this is honestly terrifying. Wtf?"Oh no, I dropped a USB stick with a strangely specific timeframe of cellphone logs in your news agency's lobby somehow, when I stopped in for no reason!

So, why was he being tracked? Grindr is for legal age relationships, right? Also, who gave up his cell phone data and why are people ok with this?

He probably used a phone that the Church paid for. It was a company phone I bet.
EDIT: Read the article. They just scraped public posts (assuming Grindr has something like that) or they had someone he sent messages to show said messages to a private investigator hired by the Church. Or the Church paid for his phone and somehow saw his data. It's somewhat unclear but basically they had a private investigator dig up everything on this guy.

He should sue that group for emotional distress and loss of income. That's private data that they abused and weaponized, that should not be allowed.

He probably used a phone that the Church paid for. It was a company phone I bet. In a Tuesday piece presenting the backstory, the Pillar reported that it had obtained information based on the data Grindr collects from its users, and hired an independent firm to analyze it.

So my understanding is that Grindr collects data from its users to sell to third party vendors, who then sell the data to parties of interest. These party of interest can use it for whatever they deem of use to them. I guess it was time to crack down on closeted gay Catholic officials? A rival in the Archdiocese or something?

If this stops them from assaulting children I'm all for it.That's if this was a measure undertaken to expose predatory behavior in the first place. From the looks of things, it's more likely that this church official was targeted by a Catholic publication with the intent of blackmailing him, shaming him or ruining his career and reputation. It might not be kosher for this guy to fuck around with other guys as a man of the cloth, but I maintain that outing this man - to the point that they hired an independent firm to analyse the information they bought to ensure it was this specific guy they caught - was worse. It wasn't for anyone's wellbeing, if anything it seems like he was outed to protect the sanctity of the church from a homosexual fornicator. And frankly, if this man was a pedophile and using his status to rape kids, I feel like the church would cover it up and reassign him rather than let him resign in shame. I can't vouch for the reputation of the Catholic publication, but unless they have a track record of denouncing pedophile priests and speaking in opposition to the Vatican's protection of them, I'm not convinced that this was an altruistic gesture by a group of radicals and reformationists waging a war against Vatican sex crimes. When they're gay and/or having sex, Catholics are just "keeping them honest" by ousting them from their positions, but when they're child molesters, suddenly they're good men of the cloth besieged by heinous mistruths. Unless this publication has a record of breaking from the Vatican line and calling out child predators, I see no reason to assume selfless intent in what they did. I'll eat my words if that was the purpose of this investigation, and this guy was using Grindr to groom children, but there's no reason to think that this guy was doing anything but hooking up with other consenting adult men through the app. --- But I don't have to make this mistake, and I don't have to stay this way.
