Stop using Google, Facebook, Microsoft, etc if you care about privacy!


I noticed you left out Apple - the same company that handed over control of their cloud servers to a Chinese state run company.


Not sure why I left out Apple, but I agree.

etc covers too many to list though... because everyone is doing it (even yc companies)


I notice you left out Amazon. In fact, there are a number of players to list, which is the reason the grandparent wrote 'etc..'


Apple is the biggest company in the world, by market cap. I would hardly call Apple a member of the 'etc..' list.


Mentioning Apple to bring up the point is different than calling out parent for leaving it off. It was petty.


Petty is allowing Chinese state run companies to hand over all of their users data to the Chinese government while proclaiming you respect and protect your users privacy.
