Gary Kremen is the founder of Match.com, the first internet dating platform, and his work sits at the intersection of algorithms, identity, trust, and social behavior. He later became widely known for his landmark legal battle establishing property rights in domain names, including Sex.com. Kremen also invented dynamic web pages, selling the patent for millions. Today, he remains active in civic technology, data ethics, and digital governance, reflecting on how early design choices in computer dating shaped platforms and culture.
