Hey! Following the #GlobalSwitchDay initiative, can you share any scandal, security problems or situations in which the proprietary apps have failed to care for their users? I would like to gather information for each app so people I know can be more informed about what they’re using. Mention things that you might even take for granted, some people are completely unaware.
The apps are: Whatsapp, Reddit, X/Twitter, Instagram, Facebook Messenger, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok.
It’s a 0click so you have to have vpn running the entire time on any device that you install signal on
And if i don’t they might find out I’m in the country that i live in.
VPNs are pretty much dead simple to set up, and nowadays doesn’t really have all the usability problems it used to have; I don’t really see the issue here?
