Do you remember ... ?
Dannon's Activia, DanActive health claims draw USD21 Million fine.
Power Balance Bracelets lawsuit.
The PIP breast implants scandal.
The
2010 was the year of the "PIP scandal". Thousands of women throughout
the world carrying a time bomb: prosthesis with uncertified gel,
increased risk of rupture and leak into ganglions, increase risk of
developing capsular contractures.

A similar case is eHarmony, a 13 years old site claiming to be "scientifically proven", and they have not got any proof of that!
I
live in a South American country and I am really astonished to see how
online daters in "1st World" countries are really victims of human experimentation. No actual online dating site
is "scientifically proven" because no one can prove its matching
algorithm can match prospective partners who
will have more stable and satisfying relationships -and very low divorce
rates- than couples matched by chance, astrological destiny, personal
preferences, searching on one's own, or other technique as the control
group in a peer reviewed Scientific Paper for the majority (over 90%) of
its members.
Imagine a NEW Legislation for Online Dating Sites to force them disclose how many active members they have (Premium members: paid or with gift subscriptions) ?
And also force them to conduct ID verification ?

That will improve dramatically the Online Dating Industry!
