One of the key problems with automated decision making systems are false positives False positives doesn't matter when its used for showing content or ads But when its used for more important systems, it can cause havoc, like in this case Even a 0.01% false positive rate at humanity scale is 700,000 lives impacted Dont depend on companies to care for you TAKE CONTROL

🚨 Your @Google Keep notes aren't as private as you think. 📝

Every thought you jot down could be analyzed to profile you. Google's privacy policy allows this. It's a data goldmine for Google.

Why stick with Google Keep when superior alternatives exist?

The main content displays logos and names of three Google Keep alternatives: Notesnook (black square logo with white symbol), Standard Notes (white square logo with blue 'n'), and Joplin (blue square logo with white 'J'). The image has a thin green border and 'ente' watermark in the bottom right corner.

Some of the earliest users of Ente Auth were people working at CERN (yes, that CERN). Later we found out that they had recommended Auth in their internal documentation. Recently, they reached out to give us a grant. Mutually, we decided that to do a security audit with that money. Happy to report, Ente has successfully completed the audit across all its products (link in replies)
