Quora's system sent me a "Space you may like" email linking to an underage public *dating* group. I can't show the url here for obvious reason but this should/needs to be shut down ASAP.

Does anyone here work at or know someone who works at Quora and Discord that can help expedite above request? I have contacted Quora via Twitter & Discord via the Underage report form.

Please excuse me for making a fuss about this. I feel very protective toward our kids as a father-to-be.

I can be contacted via the Twitter profile above.

They work with the FBI.

If you see anything that makes you think a child is in imminent danger call 911. Immediately.

Thanks for the heads up, we're looking into this at Quora.
