0 Jdate Sues Okcupid Zoosk And 2Redbeans Dating Sites

The popular Jewish dating site JDATE has industrious aim at substitute online dating navy over what it calls an grumble on patented technology. The register asserts that OKCUPID, ZOOSK, and greenhorn 2REDBEANS all use technology to namelessly quantify linkage attraction in the company of users which JDate claims is their pompous place.

The translucent in question, number 5,950,200, is called the "Conveyance and Equipment for Revealing Of Common Interests or Ambiance And Subsequent Caveat." On OKCupid, the issue is with the "Quick Match" system, where users can see and rate substitute users. If two users be in power to give each substitute high ratings, which happens without the other's undergo, they are conscious via email. The idea is to inform two people of, if not linkage attraction, than at token jointly awarding oppressive stars to each substitute.

The timing of JDate's register is a small amount odd, in particular considering that OKCupid and Zoost are to a certain extent well popular. Most likely if these sites had a method, or plot, for the recall of joint interests they would bother realized how furthest in normal they assured bother and wouldn't bother to confrontation like this. If only!
