This is such a weird comment to read on hackernews. I miss the product/new app oriented community that HN once was.

- smcleod 4y agoI don't think it's that weird, a lot of us are especially concerned with privacy and security.
- 1123581321 4y agoIt's not genuine concern, in this case. If someone were interested in privacy, they would be better at understanding when a paid SaaS has boilerplate in their privacy policy and why they might use analytics.
- Terretta 4y agoYou shouldn't have boilerplate in a policy. It's easy enough to find a dozen sites (Shopify, termly.io, etc.) that will generate a tailored policy for you based on your intentions.
- 1123581321 4y agoIndeed. I typically point companies to the aptly named https://www.privacypolicies.com https://www.privacypolicies.com which I’ve found to be configurable enough for most. There are productized legal consultations available, too. As someone who also understands the challenges of guiding a business through implementing finely tailored privacy policies, you’re in a position to read between the lines and empathize when you a see a business that collects and uses data more minimally than their policy claims.
- jerryzh 4y agoIt is weird that you think even hn user should not be the group to be privacy oriented. I definitely don't prefer that future.
- rchaud 4y agoProduct Hunt dot com is the place to be if you want all smiles, back-patting and no awkward questions. These are the forbidden realms where one can have the temerity to task "why would anyone use this over rsync?"
