I imagine they will have thought of this — there's probably an authorization step like Face/Touch ID or entering your Apple ID password.

Check out Crucial Conversations (https://www.amazon.com/Crucial-Conversations-Talking-Stakes-...). It's a framework that I've found immensely helpful.
If interested, I do recommend you read the book, but you can still get something out of this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFaXx3pgaxM (it's a summary masquerading as a review).
Just on the GDPR front, our DB also has customer data. We currently host on heroku. Does the data we pull in / process using retool go anywhere else except for where we point it?
(I'm working on a product that may eventually use this – left my email on their website and Chas got in touch and we ended up on a Skype call)

I don't want Google looking back at me whenever I look up into the sky.
Edit: Spoke to soon. Not a fan of sending every page I visit to you guys [1].
I've been using Concentrate[1] so far with great results. It has a few more options (such as a growl message every X seconds) but no nice motivational quote for websites! :) Also – the first version is actually free (click the buy button).
Maybe not, but the mechanism still exists to capture your finger print — even if it's "turned off".
You may as well set up a location-aware tweet to broadcast "I'm here" every time you hit that home button.

Seems to me that something like this can be built faster if resources were combined in some way. I guess the tough thing here is that people seem to have different visions as to what the end product would look like. Perhaps effort would be best expended by collaborating on a solid, secure "base" image which could then be forked as needed.

My ideal system would:
* Be open source.
* Be built with a security mindset from the ground up.
* Have some sort of full system/drive encryption.
* Run on something like a Raspberry Pi with local storage attached.
* Have one identity per-person for social use (public/private blog, private chat, private audio/video calling, private email, private sharing of photos, videos, private VRM [1])
* Have the ability to spawn off anonymous identities that would not be traceable back to your IP/device for anonymous publishing/chat/email where required.
* Be easy enough that I can give one to my parents, create accounts for them, show them once how to use it and then forget about it.
* Have all of this backed up through some distributed, encrypted system like SpaceMonkey [2].
* A possible late addition for mass adoption - the software could "trick" users into doing things they shouldn't (in a controlled way) and then after they've done this, tell them that what could have happened would have been quite serious (such as giving some . This would lead to more careful behaviour in general by all that use the software, which could only be a good thing.
Anyone know of such a system in the works? I'd love to contribute.
[1] VRM - Vendor Relationship Management. Keeps track of who you've shared your personal details with, generates a unique email for each "connection" (where connections can be you telling someone to flick you an email or you signing up to a site) in order to cut off communication at your convenience, not theirs. Sharing of personal details (such as name, birthday etc.) for sites that require it would initially be done directly, eventually moving to a system where this software IS the proxy by which third parties communicate with you (physical mail, messages, phone calls etc.). No more spam!

The solution I'm going with now is a native client that creates the cookies locally which the browser extension then accesses. Mine's also not immediately marketed towards teams but rather individuals.
Best of luck.
The same day literally hours before this release Department of Homeland security named Cyber threats a severe issue and is trying to use this threat to enact SOPA style laws with executive order. This operation gives them a perfect example of WHY.

The Neilsen study does not and cannot, due to the subjective nature of what constitutes an interesting design, guarantee tested sites met these criteria.
Your users will read — but only enough to feel they have an understanding of a situation before they take action.
