January 2020 Top Ten Blockstack Apps Sparking a Privacy Revolution

SAN FRANCISCO - Jan. 31, 2020 - PRLog -- Over the last five years, we have seen the rise of fake news, surveillance capitalism and a growing realization that we have given up our privacy for convenience. Meanwhile privacy advocates gathered around the globe this week to celebrate Data Privacy Week, "an international effort to create awareness about the importance of respecting privacy, safeguarding data and enabling trust" according to the IAPP.

While privacy professionals celebrate data privacy, ethical  developers are creating apps that respect individual digital rights, decentralization and privacy. These "Can't Be Evil" principles as set forth by Blockstack PBC require that apps neither collect user data, use cookies nor track users. In short, Blockstack apps respect data privacy.

Dappity is your portal to privacy respecting apps. In honor of Data Privacy week, Dappity has selected it's top ten Blockstack apps. One word describes the development teams behind each of these apps: Hustle. Please take a look at all of the apps and provide feedback to the developers.
