That is how blind earns money? There are only few ads
Does anybody know what was changed?
The part about storing the email scares me. They used to say they only use it for account verification and that they don’t store it.
It says "entity" which is just the domain part of the domain. Nothing changed from the previous privacy notice
This is Ashley Madison type leak waiting to happen. The question is when! 🤣
Can someone make a P2P version of blind running on Blockchain or something? Would rather trust the decentralized community / auditable code than a private entity
Let's build it. Will most likely be better than current app. I wanna meet the PM that built this thing
I'm game. Don't have a *ton* of time but would contribute.
Are Blind engineers on Blind
Yes, but they get the “New” tag.
Okay
Sometimes I think that do blind share our data with respective company. I mean I know company like google, Microsoft, apple etc secretly share our data with govt or any other entity. I am doubtful if company offer blind blillion dollar to share data, will blind refuse?
The moment this got out though Blind would be done, forever. It's a one trick pony and then Blind shuts down for good. At that point they can only sell prior data, to existing companies only. If the larger companies don't want to play ball, then Blind blew it's head off with minimal return. It's far more profitable to do advertising to us over the long term, and try to grow their username. Eventually segueing to offering pay-to-use services for us, like leetcode subscriptions, interview prep services, resume prep services, etc. Blind could even become the new levels.fyi, and this time keep better data control
