Top U.S. #Catholic #Church official resigns after #cellphone #data used to #track him on #Grindr and to #gay bars

The resignation stemmed from reporting in the #Pillar, an online newsletter that reports on the Catholic Church. Tuesday afternoon, after Burrill’s resignation became public, the Pillar reported that it had obtained information based on the data Grindr collects from its users, and hired an independent firm to authenticate it.

Which finally debunked the saying, "If you have nothing to hide, you have nothing to fear."
