What ads & what scam ? Disroot ? Picocrypt ?
From https://www.privacytools.io/donate
The only sponsorship of PrivacyTools.io so far is the service “Redact.dev” click here to view the example. To avoid confusion, these entries will be clearly marked as a sponsored entry.
I will make this very clear: No tool or service will be added here just because an affiliate program is offered.
Clearly false when the VPN page lists NordVPN as the best pick, followed by Surfshark and an and for Incogni at the bottom of the page.
PG’s Jonah Aragon steal PT’s creator’s funds & his subreddit & censors anyone who mentions it
can you stop linking that one video which uses “trust me bro” and the privacytools website itself as sources and link some actual verifiable stuff?
(it’s literally copy paste)
That’s called forking an open source project, not to even mention that everyone who wrote the stuff is now on PG
staff
the staff unanimously decided to move
Money & subreddit
The website is pretty decent & clean
what the fuck? Google has a clean website, doesn’t mean I should be using it. The usefulness of the information is what matters, and privacytools ranking ads as “best picks” sure as hell isn’t informative
better licencing
same as above. Doesn’t matter if they have a better license when everything else is a scam
The foundations of PG were built on a lie & PT still has the updated info
Suuuuuure cuz You said so
I linked many sources, where are yours? There’s no lies here, Burung was absent from github, the reddit and all the chats for multiple years and now wants them back to delete all the evidence.
PT still has the updated info
Like NordVPN and Surfshark? The same thing PrivacyTools itself warned about promoting in their blog that’s now deleted?
It’s way better than PG stealing funds from PT
are you against PT making money
absolutely yes, the owner is an asshole and the website is shit
Except PrivacyGuides literally steals (including money)
PrivacyTools have made it clear to mark something as promotional
No they absolutely do not, stop being a shill

PG stole funds
Following this, BurungHantu made false accusations about Jonah stealing donations from the project. BurungHantu had over a year since the alleged incident occurred, and yet he never made anyone aware of it until after the Privacy Guides migration. BurungHantu has been repeatedly asked for proof and to comment on the reason for his silence by the team and the community, and has not done so.

people from PT
the pt people voluntarily and unanimously moved to pg
tech bro recommendations like Brave browser
I’m never gonna recommend librewolf/mullvad browser/whatever is popular these days to a coworker, even if I daily drive them. Do you know what I did suggest to them, and they actually switched to it from chrome? Brave.
It’s not the best, it’s not the most powerful, but being able to say “it’s chrome but without ads” is a major selling point, especially with non tech savy people who don’t want their cookies cleared on every restart

privacytools is dogshit now, the original owner made it into a promotional VPN shill website and every single contributor, admin, mod, etc from the former privacytools now is under privacyguides
aaand next time they’ll leave their cell phone home to not get tracked, so not only do you not get their location, they can’t even call you in an emergency
good parenting, i guess
