The app, founded by Sall Grover, was initially blocked from accessing the platform in 2021, and was later refused re-entry. The court awarded Tickle $20,000 in damages and up to $50,000 in legal costs. This case marks the first federal case on gender identity discrimination, sparking global interest over rules for spaces, sports, and events. The apps team is now crowdfunding for a possible High Court fight. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
