Yeah there are so many of these they are starting to get a little redundant. I understand why privacyguides was created over privacytools. Let the best website win!
tbh, we don't see this as a competition. Those guys (and gals) were there WAY before us, and they know their stuff. And there are many more people covering similar topics, too. We're humble enough to know that we stand on the shoulders of giants. Our feeling is that the subject is complex and fast-paced. With more reliable sources, people have better chances to find whats working best for them.
More sources is always better to increase the reach of these technologies. We need to flood the internet with projects like this to make privacy more mainstream.
Yeah I've been digging into the guides and they're really user friendly. Loving the site so far compared to the others.
