I’ve been working really hard to research and rank messaging apps by their privacy. The more green boxes the better.

I plan to turn PrivacySpreadsheet.com into a place for privacy data on everything from cars to video games. It’s all open source too on GitHub.

Not trying to advertise, I just put a lot of time into researching all this, and I want to share it since I think others could benefit.

    Not that I give a shit, but I can see you potentially catching some flack for listing the USA as an “authoritarian regime” lmfao

      Lets be honest, its not much different from China. They both make social media companies censor, and they both track citizens to predict their likliness of committing a crime in the future.

        I wouldn’t say worse than China, but I’d say they’re both equal, in their own way.

        It’s the nature of state politics and security. I’d bet even money every government on the planet is equally bad, up to the resources they have at their disposal.

        Remember, all governments are collections of individuals, and individuals range in their morality.

        Certain types are attracted to certain opportunities…like the power of government.
