Introduction

Nowadays privacy violators are all over the web, some of them are pretty easy to avoid, for example Google, which is obvious and well-known that they track you all over the web and spies on you, some of them try to pretend that they are private but it actually is a honeypot of the Government/Big Corpos like ProtonMail. But how can we disinguish between those? That's what we will cover them in this article.

Basic requirements

Here are the basic requirements that every provider or service should have:

Bitcoin to be accepted for paid providers: this is a really important factor to consider with - you don't want your bank or PayPal to know every transaction you have done, do you?
No reCaptcha/hCaptcha for registration: reCaptcha is owned by google - enough said. hCaptcha is another captcha that pretends to protect your privacy, but their privacy policy tells a different story.
