As the world grapples with a sharp rise in the number of #COVID19 cases, fraudsters are trying to capitalize on the state of panic -- and even the goodwill of others. Here’s how to protect yourself against phishing attempts and malware. protonmail.com/blog/coronavir…

This is also why HEY isn’t actually a competitor to Gmail in the global marketshare sense. Most people either don’t care about email (😢) or don’t realize/mind how much using a “free” big tech service actually ends up costing them in the end. But we don’t need everyone to use HEY

Good news for US & EU citizens as Privacy Shield, which allowed transfer of personal data between those regions, is scrapped. The US govt needs to pass "meaningful, strong, & comprehensive privacy legislation" & curtail its surveillance, says Access Now. accessnow.org/in-a-victory-f…

Now it's Australia's turn to take Google to court for privacy violations. “The ACCC considers that consumers effectively pay for Google’s services with their data, so […] Google increased the ‘price’ of Google’s services, without consumers’ knowledge.” abcnews.go.com/Business/wireS…

You knew it wasn't going to be great when Google stalled for weeks on releasing their data disclosure for the iOS Gmail app. But still seeing it printed still shocks: Your EMAIL client linking data to you on purchases, location, search history?! theverge.com/2021/2/22/2229…

This is such a depressing outlook: EVERY WAKEN MINUTE IS A MOMENT I COULD BE MONETIZING. It's the same thinking that lead Hastings to quip that Netflix's main competition is sleep. It's a totalitarian approach to attention.

After months of stalling, Google finally revealed how much personal data they collect in Chrome and the Google app. No wonder they wanted to hide it. Spying on users has nothing to do with building a great web browser or search engine. We would know (our app is both in one).

It's time to shine a light on dark patterns. With legislation in the works, read 𝚐𝚛𝚎𝚐 𝚋𝚎𝚗𝚜𝚒𝚗𝚐𝚎𝚛.'s explainer on the ways companies manipulate users to extract their money, data and much more. nytimes.com/2021/04/30/opi…

Google complies with invasive "keyword warrants" that identify anyone who searched for a term. Thomas Brewster reports: forbes.com/sites/thomasbr… DuckDuckGo doesn't have any search histories by design and, bc of that, has had 0 search warrants (of any kind) since our founding in 2008.
