Due to digitalization, the importance of privacy is rising. I think that the majority of people do not have a sense of it. The borders are blurred and in the rush of time, people do not even think about the potential risks they are exposing themselves, their clients, and their companies reputation. This human factor is the first in the line of data leaks issues. Rising awareness of data security importance was driving us, at Sealit, to devote and provide a solution for this issue. ✨ I am so happy when I meet people and teams dedicating their knowledge to this field and security revolution 😊💪

@nihalkothiyal I still use google 😬. Not good for privacy, but I've found other engines don't find as good of results for developer related searches.

It is really important to me. I guess some companies handle the situation better than others as they don't really give importance to this topic.

@ezgiyeginaltay Privacy is the most important human right of the 21st century. Every company should learn the value of privacy.
Funnily enough, not really. I actually like it better when companies have targeted advertisements

@richard_gao2 actually two different things: privacy and targeted advertising

It depends on what plan, if I am the Founder of the company, then I must be a public person, because I should be known and recognized. I warmly relate to people, and I want them to remember me like that.

@ixord Privacy is keeping information confidential that you don't want to share. Therefore, it is not a privacy violation for a Founder to want to appear and share this information. It is a violation of privacy if information that anyone does not want to share with everyone - photos, home addresses, live locations, conversations, files - is accessible to anyone without permission.

One of the critical aspects of selling B2B products is ensuring customer trust, especially for a new market entrant like my Slack Plugin, Instant Meet (https://www.instantapp.tech/). Many companies have inquired about the data we collect, and I may need to remove certain features or prioritize privacy to establish trust and build credibility with potential customers.

@yash_gandhi4 you definitely need to prioritize privacy

When it comes down to my private life:
Definitely!
I mean besides my partner and my family, noones knows I'm trying to build my own brand.
Just love the concept of building in privacy!
Yes. Personal life and Professional life should be kept different.
I like my personal life to be kept private
I think it may change depending on the situation. If it is about a person or a company, it is really important but if it is about an app or website, usage of my data may be even beneficial for me

@zehra_yavuz I agree with the first part, but I think it would be better to evaluate the collection and benefit of the data as follows; If you allow your data to be collected, it is not a breach of security and privacy anyway, but if your data is being secretly taken from you without your consent and knowledge, it is a very serious problem indeed.

Researchers perceived that most (96%) people across generations, and more than 93% of Millennials, say they care about privacy. I care too.
Yes, I think it's very important for me and my family to have control over our personal data and be able to decide who can access it.
It’s also important for individuals to take steps to secure their own privacy, such as using encryption technologies when possible and avoiding sharing sensitive data over unsecured networks.

@jd_manager An individual needs to understand the importance of privacy and act accordingly.
Definitely, privacy is a top priority for me.
