Whistleblower Edward Snowden is back to his old ways—only instead of classified NSA documents, he’s stealing the hearts of women.
A Reddit user (writer/director Ross Cohen) created a fake Snowden profile on popular minimalist dating app Tinder to see how users would react to him.
He named the fictional Tinder profile lonely_ed_, which is in reference to Snowden’s ongoing asylum issues in Russia. (Snowden has been hiding in Russia for more than a year after the U.S. government revoked his passport.)
How’s the response? See for yourself:
“The saddest part is that my online dating account never received a tenth of what fake Snowden is getting,” bozobozo commented.
