The data economy wasn’t built
with your privacy in mind.

You Are the Product

“Free” apps are paid for by actively harvesting your daily habits, location data, and private messages. They extract this data and sell it to the highest bidder.

Weaponized Legalese

Privacy policies aren’t written to protect you. They are intentionally designed to hide predatory data practices behind thousands of words of complex legal jargon.

The Illusion of Choice

Settings are purposely confusing, and real opt-out buttons are buried deep. The entire system is engineered to keep you tracked, even when you try to say no.

That’s where we come in

We build the tools to
take your control back.

01

Honest Audits

We dissect popular apps and expose exactly what data they are taking from you. No corporate spin, just the raw facts about where your information goes.

02

Plain English

We read the 10,000-word privacy policies so you don’t have to. We translate weaponized legalese into clear, simple warnings anyone can understand.

03

Kill Switches

We don’t just tell you there’s a problem. Every audit includes exact, step-by-step instructions to lock down your settings and stop the data bleed.

Our Mission

Make privacy the default.
Not a luxury.

Digital autonomy is a fundamental right. The modern web relies on a broken system where your private life is treated as currency. We are here to dismantle that system.

We are building an open database of corporate surveillance, designed to shift the balance of power away from data brokers and back into the hands of the people. No trackers. No corporate sponsors. Just the truth.

The Weekly Fix

One privacy fix in your inbox each week.

Every week, we send one plain-language privacy action: a setting to change, a permission to review, or a product behavior worth understanding.

One email a week. Unsubscribe any time. No drama.
Who We Are

We believe privacy is a default, not a luxury.

The internet wasn’t built to spy on you, but it was hijacked by surveillance capitalism. We are an independent team of privacy researchers and developers dedicated to reverse-engineering the data traps built into everyday tech. We read the weaponized legalese and test the confusing settings so you don’t have to.
