The axes are interesting and a good starting point. From their site:
* Privacy & Data Practices: Is it designed using state of the art data practices, and respectful of user rights?
* Transparency: Is it made clear to users what the device does and how data might be used?
* Security: Is it designed and built using state of the art security practices and safeguards?
* Stability: How robust is the device and how long of a life cycle can a consumer reasonably expect?
* Openness: How open are both the device and the manufacturer‘s processes? Is open data used or generated?
- ancarda 7y agoThat URL opened up a scam site for me claiming I was going to win something, I think a phone. I closed the tab too quickly to see How did that happen? I have JavaScript disabled and an adblocker installed...

- droithomme 7y agoI got competition6155.primeluck2.live redirecting to mobile-app-market-here1.info redirecting to updatelive.yourultimatesafevideoplayer.info. Which is obviously a malware download. Fun stuff. Gives me tons of confidence TrustableTech can be trusted and certifying device security globally. Trusted Technology Mark? To me this will mean "unsafe".
- gadgtgirl 7y agoI am getting this same redirect for Goodreads.com saying my flash player needs to be updated. https://updatelive.yourultimatesafevideoplayer.info/lagek?lageks=-dkZUxGwRUN9I4xnaz9E8mCG38E-SjuD-c-PFTzDUcA.&cid=15842754511756480926054005894482147&sid=2502239-577643019-0 https://updatelive.yourultimatesafevideoplayer.info/lagek?la...
