$25 billion is a clear warning to Big Tech. The business model built on collecting and monetizing people’s data is still standing.

Meta just got hit with the largest penalty ever imposed on the company.

A New Mexico judge has ordered Meta to pay $25 bn for misleading Facebook users about how their data was protected.

That's 5 times the $5 bn the FTC handed Facebook in 2019. Let's dig further...

Meta argues the state never showed consumers were harmed, and plans to appeal; this could take years, and the penalty doesn’t change how Facebook handles your data today.

If you're concerned about that, you should follow our checklist: https://t.co/gNeY2r510P

Proton Meet now has waiting rooms & chat threads.

The entry gate is entirely cryptographic, so until the host admits you, you’re not in the call’s encrypted group and have no keys, and therefore no access to the audio, video or chat.

Private meetings just got more private.

As the data isn't publicly accessible anymore, we can't be sure what's what -- so it's probably safe to assume that some of these "In Planning" devices are already live, if not most of them.

Similarly, it could be that some devices are out of commission.

That's what @therealDeFlock is building, a more accurate and up-to-date version that relies on reports from people on the ground (https://t.co/YMKxiAztK8)

Ours is simply a tool based on JM's research that found a lot more than what Flock has disclosed and what people have been able to find and report so far; a more comprehensive map.

[Proton Mail @ProtonMail]

That photo you're about to email can carry where it was taken, which device took it and when.

Proton Mail strips that EXIF data from photo attachments automatically before they're sent.

Folders are rolling out in Proton Pass.

Sort items into folders and subfolders, drag and drop them, filter, search, and create nested folders.

Folder sharing will come soon; for the moment folders follow vault rules.
