How Monexus framed this: we treated the book launch as a media-industry story, not a celebrity profile. The dating apps are infrastructure as well as a private goods; Lord's column is interesting mainly because it is the rare piece of English-language commentary on them that is not produced inside the same funnels the apps pay to fill.
