The Boy Bye Bot is a chatbot inspired by the iconic lyrics of Beyonce that helps you rid yourself of overzealous suitors.
Dating online can be a tiresome practice, between the creeps you encounter and today's commitment-phobic brand of player widely known as the 'fuckboi.' Described as "a chatbot that creeps can text instead of bugging you," this service provides you with a fake phone number to give real guys you would rather not converse with.
To use the Boy Bye Bot, you simply send the offending person the designated number (whether you meet online or IRL) and a chatbot will respond with insane text messages, Jezebel article links and Planned Parenthood donation requests. You can also read the exchanges at Creepers vs. The Bot.
