Tiny Privacy Tip for VideoChats 
:
If privacy is important to you,
it would be a good idea to move your conversations away from platforms such as Zoom or Google Meet to use a more privacy-respectful alternative.
One platform that I recommend for videoconference is
Jitsi Meet: https://meet.jit.si
The good news is,
it’s extremely easy to use!
Jitsi Meet has many benefits:
Super Easy to Setup
Only come up with a long and unique name for your session, share this link and you’re good to go!
Open and Free
Jitsi Meet is open source and completely free! Here’s the code: https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet
No Account Needed
No email, no name, and no phone number are collected at all.
End-to-End Encrypted for One-on-One
If you only chat with one person, chats are end-to-end encrypted. It is also fairly secure with more participants. More on Jitsi's security here: https://jitsi.org/security
Self-Host (if you want)
For additional privacy, you can setup your own Jitsi server, here’s how: https://jitsi.github.io/handbook/docs/devops-guide/
Versatile and Simple
Nothing new to download, Jitsi Meet works with any browsers. You can also use Jitsi’s desktop or mobile app if you prefer!
Why use a platform that is
spying and tracking you and your interlocutors when you can use a free privacy-respecful alternative that is even easier to use!
