#PrivacyToolsIO failing to their principles: dark patterns and the hidden contract with #NordVPN

@werwolf @Yujiri Good catch! TY for documenting it in detail. The #PrivacyToolsIO & #PrivacyGuides folks have been dodgy as hell from day 1. It was always evident there were deep conflicts of interest, most particularly from the #Signal thread: https://github.com/privacytools/privacytools.io/issues/779 Also see: https://lemmy.ml/post/31433 & https://lemmy.ml/post/30736 & https://lemmy.ml/post/31487

[Windows] While removing shady software, is the control panel enough or should Uninstall tools be used?

@ascott Jonah Aragon et al. has actually hijacked a “privacytools” discussion from someone who had no #PrivacyToolsIO connection… someone who formed a community to ensure a venue for impartial discussion about #PrivacyTools long before the infighting & existence of #PrivacyGuides: https://activism.openworlds.info/@aktivismoEstasMiaLuo/108079291044212350

@atoponce @joel It turns out PTIO changed their github acct name from #privacytoolsIO to #privacytools so the bug reports were not deleted. That small stupid change broke a shit-ton of links though. This is the new location → https://github.com/privacytools/privacytools.io/issues/

@atoponce @joel W.r.t #PrivacyToolsIO prioritizing money above their principles, I’ll elaborate. When it was pointed out that #PayPal shares customer data with over 600 corporations, the list of which was furnished to #PrivacyTools, not only did they continue accepting #PayPal donations but they neglected to warn their donors about it. That info should not be concealed; it should be transparent.

@atoponce @joel This covers some of the issues with #PrivacyToolsIO → https://lemmy.ml/post/31433 & https://lemmy.ml/post/31487

@joel @atoponce Burung Hantu & Jonah Aragon are both quite incompetent. The fight between them is actually a good thing b/c #PrivacyToolsIO has always pushed misinfo & omissions (they hold back on publishing the pitfalls of the tools they recommend). Their interest is _money_. The conflict of interest & incompetence is evident by the link itself: that article is in #Cloudflare.

@kr1s000 @novaburst There’s plenty of incompetence all around by all involved with #privacytoolsio. They completely pulled the plug on social.privacytools.io spontaneously without warning. Ppl had no chance to copy their follow list or to tell their followers where their new account will be. It was reckless on both sides. The #Privacytools website has poor advice too. Fuck those incompetent assholes.

The fucking Privacytools.io matrix server is down...

@ademalsasa #PrivacyToolsIO & #PRISMBreak are terrible sources: https://lemmy.ml/post/31487 The 3rd is #CloudFlare site (obviously it's a bad idea to go to a #privacy abuser for privacy advice)

With #privacytoolsio shutting down their gitea instance, you might want of #selfhost your git forge from now on.

If you want to exchange about what might fits your needs, how to setup things and how other people handle some situations and setups, might join the git hosters rooms on matrix:

See you around :blobfoxwave:

We are currently discussing at #privacytoolsio about how we can handle potentional conflicts of interest. Say a team member gets a job at a company which software is listed/wants to be listed, how do you ensure integrity in the best possible way? Interesting problems to think about.

It happend folks, #privacytoolsio has just got its first sponser, time for a party! :D
