Agree and slightly disagree.
One upside is we are not required to use real names. Downside is lack of HTTPS, which can be gotten for Free with Certbot by EFF. Due to that, when we create accounts or login with an Email, that Email can be sniffed by Man in the Middle attacks. And I am pretty sure most of the folks here use GMail anyway. Another downside is Google Analytics. Still, this site is no where nearly as dangerous as Google or Facebook or Amazon on Data Collection.
One thing I know is that the majority of users, although concerned about their privacy, lack the necessary skills to do something to protect their privacy. Even shit like basics like deleting tracking cookies is getting harder and harder due to the Browsers that most people use. Chrome is by far the #1 most commonly used Browser, and Firefox is trailing in like single digits, and Chrome is by far THE MOST DANGEROUS BROWSER, ESPECIALLY when the Default Settings are to allow everyone to see everything about you by sending it ALL back to Google. So when your Social Credit Score is now based on what information Google sells to your Financial Institutions (without compensation I might add), dont complain to me.
Still, here, there is room for improvement.
