I don't understand why were some of the tech added to the list. The title says "Tech Companies That Won't Delete Your Information
Services with the highest scores have the worst policies"
Tox is listed among them. But ToX does not need any information from you. You can create a random id without any of your personal information whatsoever, and share this id with your friends, who will also have a random id.
Tox is not a company.
A clarification is much needed.
In the communication lists it says that security wise is "Bad". Why?
In fact, it would be beneficial for all of us if these lists had some information on why were some of the stuff added to the list. Precisely why is Tox added to the list.
Similar to this discussion we can see that Retroshare is too listed. Again, why?
Please share some URL with reading material why are some of the companies and tech listed at all.
- qpiox 9y agoAlso KeePass and KeePassXC are listed among companies that will not delete your information. I was not even aware that they kept some of my information. Which information do they keep? Which information about me they will not delete?
- confounded 9y agoYes, this is completely ridiculous; they’re local client-side software, which optionally can integrate with e.g. a Dropbox account. In that case Dropbox would be the ones holding data.
- fredrikaurdal 9y agoLook at my previous comment, you are not interpreting the list correctly.
- confounded 9y agoApologies!
- fredrikaurdal 9y agoNope, their status is Yes, which means they will delete your data.
- fredrikaurdal 9y agoTo make this clear, Tox has 0 Naughty Points. There are some limitations to running this on what is essentially a spreadsheet. I want to re-design the system before I add more data, because then it will be easier to make the transition. This is a priority, only limited to how much time I have available. There is some clarifications in the change log: https://secured.fyi/changelog https://secured.fyi/changelog but all sources will be added once I have the new site ready.
