If you don’t trust the company to keep their promise, don’t use their products.

I don't trust any company with their word on anything. Luckily, privacy policies are legally binding.

How can you trust any company?

The only company you could think of trusting is one where an external , independent auditor is doing its work.

What company do you trust to keep their promise?

That is ridiculous. Vote to ensure products have to be legally private and make it a crime to share or reuse your data for anything. This should be the norm that people vote for. The idea that we have to give up privacy so some nerdy pervert can be a billionaire off the backs of people who do the work is absurd.

Criminalize failure to keep private data private. Arrest CEOs and executives. Put them in jail when it happens.

Your comment is perplexing. No company on earth meets your requirement. What are you expected to do? Move to a hut in the woods?
