Encryption Against Global Mass Surveillance.

Contributing

It's important for a website like privacytools.io to be up-to-date. Keep an eye on software updates of the applications listed here. Follow recent news about providers that are recommended. We try our best to keep up but we're not perfect and the internet is changing fast. So if you find an error, or you think a provider should not be listed here, or a qualified service provider is missing or a browser plugin is not the best choice anymore or anything else...

Talk to us please. Join our subreddit and start a discussion. This is a community project and we're aiming to deliver the best information available for a better privacy. We are also using /r/privacy. Thank you for participating.

You can submit your suggestions here on GitHub (Issues) and also in our subreddit. Thank you.
