So a kid who got recruited out of college is somehow a bad person ?

No one is forcing you to install this stuff, I think Match is a horrible company which takes advantage of people, facilitates scams, on top of outright fraud .

I still recognize skill, if you told me you improved load times on Match.com by 60% I’d be very interested in hiring you. I wouldn’t personally work for any dating app or adult entertainment platform. But I have nothing against those who do.

Being recruited out of college (or not) doesn't really change anything in this equation. If ypu do something, find out that it's bad, and continue doing it anyway, then yes, you're being a bad person.
Can you seriously say that everything every company you've ever worked for aligns with your personal morality ?

Odds are no, I agree this is a disgusting tactic, but every company does bad things. If you work at say Starbucks, and some of the beans are being produced unethically, you're not a bad person for making lattes.

No, of course not. Personal responsibility is, well, personal. But even so, I fail to see how being freshly recruited out of college makes any difference.
