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.
A place to discuss privacy and freedom in the digital world.
Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.

It’s got that telegram is funded by Russia, is that true?
Wikipedia says the opposite.

Really? Because that’s how I use it. There’s nothing “public” about anything I use in it.
There’s also fully end-to-end encrypted chats.

Telegram was suddenly unblocked in Russia after getting a bunch of money from the Kremlin.

Uggh, that’s a bit concerning.
