🚨 Google wants MORE biometric data🚨

Google may advertise its new selfie video sign-in feature as a shiny new option to log into your account, but this is just an excuse to collect more of your data 😡

Just when you think the Big Tech can't get more privacy-invading, it does! 🫣

Time to #DEGOOGLE here 👉 https://tuta.com/blog/degoogle-list.

"Don't be evil"

The European #DMA is a powerful tool against Big Tech data abuse. But the EU is not pulling their weight against American push-back.

🇫🇷🚨 FRANCE BANS SOCIAL MEDIA FOR U15s → EVERYONE TO VERIFY THEIR AGE.

“For four months, all of us in France will have to prove our age,” said digital minister, Anne Le Hénanff 😡

If you're in France → you'll need to user your ID card, France Connect, or facial recognition (selfie) to log in.

🚩 What’s sold as “online safety” means #surveillance via IDs checks or face scans. 🚩

We must fight against age verification - or the free web dies!

2 weeks ago Chat Control 1.0 was extended in the EU.

There was also a lot of confusion around Chat Control 1.0 vs Chat Control 2.0, so we created the slider above

Chat Control 2.0 is the biggest threat for end-to-end encrypted communication providers like us at Tuta which is why we continue to say no to #ChatControl & fight for everyone's right to privacy. ✊🏻❤️🔒

🎉 Good news for UK citizens - NO VPN BAN 🎉

Today, the minister for AI and Online Safety, Kanishka Narayan, announced that for now the government would not take any action to restrict VPN's in the UK.

But because it may be off the agenda for now, it does not mean it will be forever. Therefore, we at Tuta will continue our fight for privacy 💪❤️

A safer internet should be a private, secure and open internet.

Today we’ve joined over 20 organizations to urge the UK Government to protect children online without making the internet less secure by restricting VPNs. 😡

Child safety and digital security aren’t competing objectives – we need both.
