Ah, I see, you're referring to this: https://help.hinge.co/hc/en-us/articles/10303221435539-What-...

You probably don't use Hinge. The verification is not necessary at all. It's merely used to "verify" your identity to other users. It has no bearing on what I cover in the post.

Interesting! Well, I'm definitely not in whatever those regions are. Presumably if a threat actor was motivated enough this would be fairly easily circumvented :]
