Well, I would not categorize and stereotype in the way that article does. An app that was generating more complaints was removed. Regardless of whether the app's participants are feminist or straight up misandrist, high complaint volume leads to app removal. And high complaint volume for the removal without valid reasoning also gets removed. It's how the internet works.
