Handige (privacy) shopping guide van Mozilla https://foundation.mozilla.org/en/privacynotincluded/

@gvenk #Mozilla should not be trusted on #privacy. Their head of EU policy said yesterday at the Nordic Privacy Arena that they are primarily a Silicon Valley tech company, that they do not see adtech/surveillance-based behavioural advertising as a problem (and they do not) and that they are partners with Google (they are and they have gotten >$B from them and have a current deal that gets them 100s of millions of $ every year). Mozilla is a surveillance capitalist.

@aral I thought the idea behind the Shopping Guide was nice

@gvenk It is. But it matters who writes the guide. A Guide To Healthy Living is a nice idea but not if written by Philip Morris.

@aral I thought there also was some kind of EFF shopping guide, but can't find it

@aral Here is the EFF shopping guide: https://www.fsf.org/givingguide/v9/

@gvenk Just had a glance. FFS I love Richard and the FSF folks but come the fuck on: it’s just irresponsible advice to say avoid iPhone because of spyware when the mainstream alternative _is_ spyware in the form of Google Android. *smh*

@aral I agree...
