Dating Site Matches Singles Based on Their Browser History: Swipe, Sync… and Spill Your Secrets!

Move over Tinder swipes and Bumble buzzes—there’s a new surefire way to broadcast your midnight panic Googles about “Is a brownie overdose possible?” or “Why does my toe smell like Fritos?” straight to your prospective soulmate. 

Enter Browser Dating, the experimental creation of Belgian digital prankster Dries Depoorter, where your 5,000 most recent searches become your romantic résumé. 

Because who needs carefully curated profiles when you can bare your deepest, darkest search history up front?


How It Works (Or Doesn’t)

  1. Download a Chrome or Firefox extension.

  2. Export your recent browser history (up to 5,000 entries).

  3. Upload it to Browser Dating.

Poof—instant “browsing personality profile” powered by AI. Matches are suggested based on shared obsessions (hello, fellow Wikipedia-divers of the “dancing plague”!) rather than “Which filter makes my cheekbones pop?”

“There’s honesty in that,” claims Depoorter, insisting his site is 100% legit—just don’t ask Grandma what she thinks about “Def Leppard lyrics stuck in my head” being the key to love.


Why It’s Ridiculous (But Also Kind of Genius)

Eighty-seven percent of daters admit they lie on profiles. Browser Dating forces you to own everything—from “gluten-free brownie recipes” to “yoga poses for hangnails.”

“Instead of choosing the best pictures or best things about yourself, this will show a side of you that you’d never pick,” Depoorter explains, gleefully. “You have to upload all of it.”

Yet just 1,000 brave souls have dove in since. Maybe outraged cough syrup searches and late-night cat-murder fantasies aren’t the pick-up lines they once dreamed of.


Privacy Schmivacy

Understandably, users fret about handing over their digital dirt. Depoorter swears the AI processing happens locally:

“It’s not exposed to the internet,” he says, as though that solves every potential leak of your embarrassing medical searches.

Still no photo uploads—yet. 

And good luck deleting your profile: initial reports claim you couldn’t… until Depoorter “fixed” it. 

Next up, he plans push notifications like “Your buddy John typed ‘am I attractive?’—Match now?”


Pricing: One-Time Fee (Because He’s an Artist)

Forget monthly subscriptions. 

Browser Dating charges a one-time fee for unlimited matches; free users get a stingy five matches. When questioned why, Depoorter shrugs:

“I’m an artist, I like to do things differently.”

Sure, Dries—because nothing says “true love” like a flat-fee, pay-once-for-my-experiments model.


The Verdict So Far

  • “Super weird,” admitted one app developer on X.

  • “What an audacious concept,” another lamented on Product Hunt.

  • “Privacy focus? Bold,” a programmer noted on Bluesky—before logging off and installing AdBlock.


Could This Actually Work?

Spoiler alert: probably not as a hookup app. 

But as a commentary on data surveillance, it’s uncanny. 

Depoorter’s past projects—surveillance video art Jaywalking and the deathbed chatroom Die With Me—proved he enjoys blurring reality and digital provocation.

“If anything, I want to show what is possible with technology in a playful way,” he says.

Indeed, nothing screams “playful” like revealing your cat’s date-of-birth googles and your existential dread in one fell swipe.


If you’re brave (or utterly masochistic), Browser Dating awaits. 

Just remember: your next match might be someone who also binged “horrifying earwax diseases” at 3 a.m.—so either true love awaits or very, very awkward dinner conversation. 

Either way, you can’t argue with honesty… even if it’s your browser history.

Please Help Find These Forgotten Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year!

  MY MOST IMPORTANT STORY  Dozens of Forgotten Little Girls Held at Male Juvenile Prison for Over a Year! Welcome to the Sunshine State , where the palm trees sway, the alligators lurk, and the legislative process makes Kafka look like a life coach!  Florida House Bill HB21 . Not just a compensation bill but possibly a 20 million dollar "Stay out of Jail Free" card for some folks. This is a bill that does some good—but also trips over its own shoelaces, falls down a staircase, and lands on a historical oversight so big, it might as well have its own zip code! An oversight that overlooks what I consider to be its most vulnerable victims! The Setup: Justice with a Catch HB21 was enacted on July 1, 2024 to compensate victims of abuse from two male juvenile detention facilities located in Florida, Dozier and Okeechobee.  It says, “Hey, survivors of abuse between 1940 and 1975, here’s some compensation for the horrific things you endured!” Sounds good, right?

We Are Temporarily Halting Further Publication....

Do to financial issues and lack of funding we are temporarily halting further publication. After a full year of publication, we have reached a bridge that we are unable to cross at this time. We may periodically publish an article but at this time, full-time publication is no longer feasible. Thank you to all the readers who followed us throughout our journey and we wish you the very best. Hopefully we will see our way through this rough patch and will resume publication in the near future. Thanks again! Robert B.

Postal Police Stuck Behind ‘Keep Out’ Signs While Mailmen Face Muggers: You Can’t Make This Stuff Up!!

As crime against letter carriers surges, one would think that America’s armed, uniformed Postal Police might be hitting the streets to protect our mail.  Instead, they’re still glued to their post office entrances like sentries guarding Fort Frownmore.  Why?  Because since 2020, the Postmaster General decreed they must “protect postal property” only—meaning, they currently serve as glorified lobby bouncers rather than actual roaming guardians of the mailstream. “ They’re robbing letter carriers, they’re sticking a gun in a letter carrier’s face and they’re demanding arrow keys, ” laments Frank Albergo , president of the National Postal Police Union and a Postal Police Officer himself.  An "arrow key" in the context of the Post Office is a specialized, universal key that postal workers use to access various locked mail receptacles, including collection boxes, apartment mailboxes, and cluster boxes. Albergo isn’t exaggerating—research shows over 100 physical assaul...
