Data is the new gold. Here are ten ways how your data is being abused: https://privacyinternational.org/feature/1064/invisible-manipulation-10-ways-our-data-being-used-against-us

Protect your private data, encrypt all your emails: https://tutanota.com/

Assume any information you share with Google will become public eventually.

Reduce your exposure as much as possible.

Use encrypted open source alternatives. If you don't care about your privacy, nobody else will.

Fun fact: We took inspiration for Tutanota's new, Google-free push notification when @Gargron 's @Mastodon used SSE for push (they now use another push system). 👍 👏 It's exciting to build open source alternatives to liberate people from using data mining services. #foss #opensource Head over to @fdroidorg to read details on our new push implementation 👉 https://f-droid.org/en/2018/09/03/replacing-gcm-in-tutanota.html

Demanding backdoor access is quite popular among Politicians. They completely ignore that a backdoor is a severe security risk to all of us. Here we explain why a backdoor is - and will always be - a very stupid idea: https://tutanota.com/blog/posts/why-a-backdoor-is-a-security-risk
