JUMBO: Privacy Made Easier, in App Form
Today, I’m excited to announce our new app:Â Jumbo. Jumbo is a beautifully designed iPhone app that helps fix the privacy mess. Unfortunately, every day it feels like there is a new story about our personal data being compromised. But the good news is that people increasingly care about protecting their privacy. In fact, I believe privacy is a human right. But our privacy can only be protected when great tools are designed with people in mind, and make this complex issue as simple as tapping a button. That’s what why we built Jumbo.
You can get it today on iOS. The Android version is coming soon.
I’m very interested to see how long this works — I feel like all of these companies could kill this app with a simple change of their APIs.
And for those worried about the security aspects of this, understandably so, the app is developed by Pierre Valade, who also created the now defunct (acquired by Microsoft) Sunrise Calendar, so dude is legit.
