The Privacy Raccoon - Digital self-defense against mass surveillance - eviltoast

For transparency sake, I’m the new maintainer of this website. Just wanted to share it here. I was thinking of creating a community for it, but I don’t know if it is worth it.

I hope someone find it useful. If you want to contribute, collaborate or just share your opinion, you’re more than welcome! The repository for the website is here https://codeberg.org/ThePrivacyRaccoon/website

    Thank you! I do research for myself so why don’t share it with others.

    And you’re completely right, sources are needed. I’ll try to add them tomorrow to the website, for now, I’ll leave some of them here, just in case anyone is interested:

    From Thunderbirds Privacy Policy, the most interesting bit is that they share your IP with Amazon:

    Thunderbird uses Amazon Web Services (AWS) to host its servers and as a content delivery network. Your device’s IP address is collected as part of AWS’s server logs.

    Thunderbird has had various security flaws in the past, most notably efail. A table noting the email clients affected by this vulnerability:

    I’m sure there’s more, this is just what I found with some fast searches.
