I think the end result of sharing your data is that you feel Known, not Surveilled. Personalized, not Compromised. The delta here is massive.

Alternatives create monopolies. Google cites Mozilla as proof competition exists. Meanwhile 3.5B people use Chrome

Recently, my father asked me for one piece of privacy advice he could actually follow. I said: “Just say No.” When someone asks for his data, default to no. - Restaurant asks for your phone number? "No thanks." - App wants access to your contacts? No. - TSA wants to scan

Something I’ve been thinking about lately is that privacy alternatives actually hurt… privacy. A few reasons: 1) They give Big Tech perfect cover. Google points to Firefox and says "see, there are alternatives!" Meta points to Signal. It's like having one small organic farm in

"Nobody cares about privacy." = the biggest lie in tech. People care. They just don't know what to do about it. Evidence: - They use Snapchat instead of giving out phone numbers - They stopped using "Sign in with Facebook" - They're scared of AI knowing everything about them

Last week, we had the privilege of submitting comments to the House Committee on Energy & Commerce as part of shaping a new federal privacy and security framework. Our message was simple: It’s time to flip the script. For too long, privacy laws have put the burden on companies

Above everything, I’m just shocked that Mark edited the phone. Why?! I had to see it for myself, and it’s clear as day.

"it's really tough to be in the consumer product business. in search of eternal growth, you need to constantly rethink what your app is for. case in point, classpass went from gym classes, to massages, now they're selling indian food"

This is definitely getting out of hand, could we make tags in the meanwhile to emphasize which model is best for what? @sama

I never imagined AirPods would be worth more than 2-3x the size of Intel.

Don't beg for anything. Not sure who's handling communications, but this is just poor taste. #Election2024

What is privacy for? And, why is Cloaked mission-driven on solving privacy, with you - the data owner - at its forefront? 🧵Thread 👇 1/10 In today’s world, where every tap, click, or eye-direction generates trackable data, this question has never been more relevant. Let's

Found one of my cloaked numbers was sold. Got these texts right after the debate. But it looks like it could be phishing
