Why privacy matters

[Sethrey]

Hmm, this is very interesting. I googled several articles about this application and it seems to have very good reviews. More precisely, there are no comments at all about the presence of bugs and problems with data security. Is there anyone who is already testing this app?

Which app are you speaking about? And what concerns hacking, the cases are really numerous now. Due to Corona, scammers decided to take everything from people and that's really disgusting.

Privacy matters to me. When I browse on the internet, I don't want to show my identity, and I prefer to stay anonymous so I can do anything with my computer. Although I cannot avoid privacy like, for example, when I register e-mail or on some website, I need to give my name, but I can use a fake name just to protect my real identity. We don't know how dangerous the internet because I heard about so many leaked data on some websites that contain important data. I don't want to get that experience, so I really care about privacy.

[Subbir]

I also maintain my privacy within the workplace you're right that the web is more likely to be scammed during this way therein case if we use other names they're going to easily find our information. There are numerous people that are always trying to harm us that they struggle to destroy it if we get the important information so for the sake of doing this online not all folks keep their information confidential.

I meant the Utopia p2p application. It is fairly new, but I found only positive reviews about it. I’ve been testing it for almost a week now and haven’t encountered a single bug in all the time. Just yesterday I started mining, and even this did not slow down my PC.

Do we really need to answer this?if you don't need privacy then go to your traditional banks and no need to be here.
because we are here to maintain our privacy and security things that bank can give us only in limited occasion but not in whole process.

i have checked but not using it ,i will wait for positive reviews of Knowledgeable account here before trying to use the app.

[yoshka]

I understand people who want to remain anonymous, it’s normal to “sleep” in the conditions of the modern world, when everything is confused. However, is it normal that people are afraid to show their faces?

I reason like this: I did not do anything illegal and, more importantly, I act in good faith, which means I have nothing to hide, because there is nothing to blame me for.

Really bad people don't stand beside people on this disaster day they're trying to hack through apps i feel no such site should be used. stand back from worrying about protecting yourself and protecting privacy.

What kind of info does it ask during the registration? As it seems everything needs a phone number and I don't want to use it. People using Telegram and believing  they're secure there, are fools. Anything taken from you is stored somewhere. And if it's stored, it can be accessed. So many cases...

You do not need absolutely any information. You just need to install the application and that’s it. It was amazing for me, because I had never encountered this before, but the application is completely anonymous.

[Negotiation]

This application does not work. Privacy is of course important No one can ever tell what will happen when it comes to working If you do not protect your privacy your information will be shared by someone else and you will lose everything. That is why you keep the information confidential before giving an application.

That's great that you can log in without any personal info. As especially during the coronavirus, even more info is collected about users by big corporations. Apple,Google, Facebook are now collecting everything. So it's possibly worth trying.

You just said that privacy cannot be protected immediately due to the virus, everything goes to the govt for information about who is doing what No problem with privacy or non-compliance. However it's completely incompatible.

By installing the application there is a need for information right?so whats the difference from collecting Info?
even free to install apps required info before installation thats why everything in internet is vulnerable.

agreed on this one .

[Starkick]

Absolutely! That is what attracted me to this application. By the way, I can recommend Covid-19 chat in it you can find the most relevant information about coronavirus.

We can study the corona virus not only through chat but also in other ways But people are adopting this method to remain safe for his or her own protection. most are strict about keeping privacy regardless of what the appliance is.

I believe, I'd better learn about the virus through the chat, where people are not afraid to tell the truth, than walking around the streets looking for someone to discuss the problem

[romelitounknown]

Who doesn't like privacy? Everyone of us needs privacy somewhere in our lifes. From personal life to business and money transactions we need a privacy always depending on our preferrence.

[Starkick]

Have you accessed the app for the last couple of days? And then I had difficulties connecting to the server ... I do not understand what this problem is connected with

Privacy helps people protect themselves from these troublesome judgments. People establish boundaries from others in society. ... Privacy helps people manage these boundaries. Breaches of these boundaries can create awkward social situations and damage our relationships
1:::Privacy is a limit on government power, as well as the power of private sector companies. The more someone knows about us, the more power they can have over us. Personal data is used to make very important decisions in our lives. Personal data can be used to affect our reputations; and it can be used to influence our decisions and shape our behavior. It can be used as a tool to exercise control over us. And in the wrong hands, personal data can be used to cause us great harm.
2;:;Privacy is about respecting individuals. If a person has a reasonable desire to keep something private, it is disrespectful to ignore that person’s wishes without a compelling reason to do so. Of course, the desire for privacy can conflict with important values, so privacy may not always win out in the balance. Sometimes people’s desires for privacy are just brushed aside because of a view that the harm in doing so is trivial. Even if this doesn’t cause major injury, it demonstrates a lack of respect for that person. In a sense it is saying: “I care about my interests, but I don’t care about yours.”
3;:;Privacy enables people to manage their reputations. How we are judged by others affects our opportunities, friendships, and overall well-being. Although we can’t have complete control over our reputations, we must have some ability to protect our reputations from being unfairly harmed. Protecting reputation depends on protecting against not only falsehoods but also certain truths. Knowing private details about people’s lives doesn’t necessarily lead to more accurate judgment about people. People judge badly, they judge in haste, they judge out of context, they judge without hearing the whole story, and they judge with hypocrisy. Privacy helps people protect themselves from these troublesome judgments.
4;:;People establish boundaries from others in society. These boundaries are both physical and informational. We need places of solitude to retreat to, places where we are free of the gaze of others in order to relax and feel at ease. We also establish informational boundaries, and we have an elaborate set of these boundaries for the many different relationships we have. Privacy helps people manage these boundaries. Breaches of these boundaries can create awkward social situations and damage our relationships. Privacy is also helpful to reduce the social friction we encounter in life. Most people don’t want everybody to know everything about them – hence the phrase “none of your business.” And sometimes we don’t want to know everything about other people — hence the phrase “too much information.”
5;:;In relationships, whether personal, professional, governmental, or commercial, we depend upon trusting the other party. Breaches of confidentiality are breaches of that trust. In professional relationships such as our relationships with doctors and lawyers, this trust is key to maintaining candor in the relationship. Likewise, we trust other people we interact with as well as the companies we do business with. When trust is breached in one relationship, that could make us more reluctant to trust in other relationships.
6;:;Personal data is essential to so many decisions made about us, from whether we get a loan, a license or a job to our personal and professional reputations. Personal data is used to determine whether we are investigated by the government, or searched at the airport, or denied the ability to fly. Indeed, personal data affects nearly everything, including what messages and content we see on the Internet. Without having knowledge of what data is being used, how it is being used, the ability to correct and amend it, we are virtually helpless in today’s world. Moreover, we are helpless without the ability to have a say in how our data is used or the ability to object and have legitimate grievances be heard when data uses can harm us. One of the hallmarks of freedom is having autonomy and control over our lives, and we can’t have that if so many important decisions about us are being made in secret without our awareness or participation.

Privacy when it comes to personal matters is important because informations that leaks can be used by identity thiefs for criminal purposes, we all agree that we do not want to be accused of the crimes we did not commit ( hell even if you commit and you do not want to admit), that is the reason why we do not want our personal details to be compromised. Regarding know-your-customer policy is a good thing and it is nothing that we should be afraid of because this businesses are also under the law regarding confidentiality of personal details of the customer. So, privacy matters in terms of legal matter for each individual.
