I've been working really hard to research and rank messaging apps by their privacy. The more green boxes the better.

I plan to turn PrivacySpreadsheet.com into a place for privacy data on everything from cars to video games. It's all open source too on GitHub.

Not trying to advertise, I just put a lot of time into researching all this, and I want to share it since I think others could benefit.

I have worked for Status in the past, but that has not impacted the review of any apps. The spreadsheet has been reviewed thoroughly by others in the privacy space before I published it, and I encourage everyone to take a look and report any inaccuracies.

The criteria is objective on purpose. Everything on the spreadsheet can be verified for accuracy.

    Status got a recommendation purely because it has proven itself to be resiliant to subpoenas and the cryptography is implemented well.

    Nothing is sponsored, and no matter who I work for in the future, it won't impact the results. It's open source on GitHub, and I'm looking for contributors to decentralize control of the spreadsheets.
