Privacy saves you money.

Companies use information about who you are connected with to estimate your income, sell you the products you don't really need, and to determine the prices.

Online retailers know that people with lower incomes are more likely to make urgent purchases, so they may charge higher prices or remove discounts.

Some financial and insurance companies use social graphs to determine interest rates and premiums. It often makes people with lower incomes pay more — it is known as 'poverty premium'.

How was the onboarding for people you communicate with? Do they think you’re crazy or paranoid?

Signal onboarding is good, most people didn't understand why I wanted them to switch apps, but it was fine once they finished setting it up.

Don't do it. If you have to ask you don't need it.

keet has the coolest tech but is still a little rough tho is improving with releases every week

signal is easier to connect to people but surprisingly for a very mature product not as good as keet in several areas
