Hiya, just quickly wondering if anyone know about a good tool for comparing Privacy policies against each other? Im currently downloading each PP, then using self-hosted StirlingPDF to compare 1 on 1. However, I am looking for a more efficient tool, to compare multiple at the time, if there are any. Any tool that can handle multiple PDFs or HTML files and look at the differences between them kinda tool.

Appreciate any suggestions! 🕵️

There is a general rule, the longer and more claused a TOS/PP is, the more they intend to hide. TOS and PP are legal documents and companies are required by law to specify their policy, if they track and profile the user they must specify it in these documents, for this reason they try to use long texts with a lot of legal jargon as much as possible, so that the user gets bored of reading it completely and does not understand even half of it. Tosdr is fine, but lacks still the analysis of much sites, now with the proliferation of AI services even further. Only very few have a TOS/PP like eg Andisearch, most others are welcome tools used by large corporations to collect user data.
