'Scary' new dating site uses your browser history to find the perfect match

Would you share your internet history to find true love?

A new 'scary' dating website matches you based on your browser history.

The world of online dating has seen it all. Apps that match you based on your favourite music, your fitness habits or astrological signs. In some cases, people have even turned to AI chatbots to form romantic relationships.

Apps like Tinder and Hinge have dedicated their platforms to using science and algorithms to help people find their soulmate.

But one developer has taken the concept of compatibility to a level that's either brilliantly honest or downright terrifying.

Belgian artist Dries Depoorter developed Browster.dating to match people based on their browser history.

So you can meet your soul mate based on whether you both spent an unusual amount of time Googling whether cats can plot against their owners, or bonding over a shared obsession with obscure disaster documentaries.

The website asks users to upload their complete browser history to find matches based on similar digital behaviours and interests.

"I created a dating website that will match people based on their browser history," the creator posted on Reddit.

The process is straightforward. Users create an account, upload their browser history, and let the algorithm analyse their digital footprint to find their supposedly 'ideal' partner.

According to the official website: "We all leave unique digital footprints as we navigate the web. This project aims to find meaningful connections between people based on their browsing habits, creating a new kind of dating experience.

"With strong privacy measures in place, browser.dating analyses your browsing history and matches you with users who have similar digital behaviors."

Dries Depoorter, who professionally creates interactive installations, apps, and games, believes this dating approach could offer genuine authenticity where other platforms have fallen short. His goal was to sidestep the curated images and illusion that characterise most dating apps, offering instead a raw look at who people actually are.

“Instead of choosing the best pictures or best things about yourself, this will show a side of you that you’d never pick," Depoorter explained. "You’re not able to choose from your search history—you have to upload all of it.”

But the novel idea doesn't have everyone's approval.

"Interesting idea, but i dont feel comfortable that i should pay money so that you get access to my browser history," one Reddit user commented.

"This is scary, I love it," another social media user responded.

"Wow! Now this is interesting. If Im matched with creepy ladies now, I'll only have myself to blame," someone else summed up.

For those brave enough to try this experiment in radical dating transparency, the free version offers up to five matches. Users who want the full experience can access premium features through a one-time payment starting at €9, which the site describes as a 'simple, one-time payment for lifetime access.'
