In plain English — Instagram

Meta collects almost everything: what you post, what you look at and for how long, device and location data, and data from other people and advertisers. They infer sensitive traits and use Meta AI conversations for ad targeting. Data is shared across all Meta products and with advertisers. You can adjust ad preferences and download your data, but you can't stop collection itself.

In plain English — Tuta

Tuta is a German E2E-encrypted email service that genuinely can't read your emails, stores all data in ISO 27001-certified German data centres, uses no cookies and no third-party analytics, and has a policy short enough to actually read — the main caveats are that some metadata (sender/recipient addresses, timestamps) is stored unencrypted, and campaign tracking via hashed connection data is present.
