I had no idea this was a nonprofit. Been using it as a reference since the split from privacytools and I always thought it was just a simple website maintained by some smart people in the industry being helpful. Like a wiki.
Not sure how to feel about the sudden push for content creation and journalism when there are other more established people doing that. They shouldnt be hiring for these random waste of money positions if they are also asking for donations. Seems like a classic overextension of a basic idea to make a nonprofit somehow profitable. Maybe im flat out wrong but it seems unnecessary.
Interesting thing from the jobs descriptions:
Privacy Guides is fiscally hosted by MAGIC Grants, a 501©(3) public charity.
MAGIC Grants is a public charity that provides undergraduate scholarships for students interested in cryptocurrencies and privacy, supports public cryptocurrency infrastructure, and supports privacy.
This was publically announced in July: https://www.privacyguides.org/articles/2024/07/22/privacy-guides-partners-with-magic-grants-501-c-3/
Remember kids, everything is a data mining trap. Be sure to submit your resume with zero PII, and at least 1024-bit encryption.
We’re really not trying to mine data lol
That’s what I would say too, need to slim the herd before the 1st round of interviews.
A resume with no PII, how are they gonna call you for the interview?
And what is the point of encrypting it? If they can’t decrypt it then you just sent them a jumble of bits, and if they can, then what was the point?
That’s… That’s the… Well nevermind…
I’ll take the L… but I’m gonna blame it on sleepyheadedness, lol.
