Tinder CEO Sean Rad set the internet ablaze yesterday with a number of controversial comments made to the Evening Standard. He said he investigated a Vanity Fair reporter because he didn’t like her article, claimed to have turned down a supermodel who was “begging” for sex and drastically misunderstood the word “sodomy.” However, his biggest error may have been talking about user statistics, because Tinder’s parent company Match.com is about to file an IPO, and it’s against SEC rules for executives to make business statements in the weeks prior to a filing.
