They need to stop relying on 3rd party sites; I support this (Destiny)

Imagine the scandal is Destinylfg.com sold their domain name to a porn company. Or what if the people running it decided to just embed some malware into their website? Maybe EA buys it and makes it just totally not work properly in order to tank Destiny. Companies should *never* rely upon 3rd parties to perform basic functionality of their games. It's risky as hell because it's out of your control.
How would Bungie have any responsibility for that scenario. How would that tank Destiny? I don't understand what you're saying at all.
DBO's FTB is a third-party product. If evil Beorn made it malicious, how would that be Bungie's scandal?
So I fully support 2Destiny2Furious including matchmaking. It's all about the implementation. My hope is that there will be some kind of feedback option, filtering for trolls and spammers, and an in-game message board that works just like LFG. "I'm a 398 warlock LFG for Wrath of the Machine Hard Mode (Fresh Run)." "Experienced raiders LF2M Vault of Glass Flawless attempts." "Streamer LTS 2 for Trials." Then you just browse and connect. That would be great.
Seamless matchmaking like in Destiny 1 would be awful, because it doesn't guarantee players are in chat. But something that streamlined the LFG process and cut out the middleman would be very, very welcome.
They're not relying on third-party sites now. Bungie has already implemented their own version of LFG, so I don't know what you mean about cutting out the middleman.
