Don't Be A Dumbo, Use Jumbo!

For the last 3 years, My crew and I have travelled across India informing people about the various privacy settings on Facebook and Twitter. The platforms have been working hard and developing their privacy options.

Use Jumbo for Online Privacy

Honestly its hard work staying up to date with all the changes that come about, and in our free time as a user I want to experience social media rather spend time again and again fixing its privacy settings.

It seems JUMBO a privacy assistant app for Iphone is here! (android will follow). "Privacy is something that people want, but at the same time it just takes too much time for you and me to act on it," explains Jumbo founder Pierre Valade

So how does Jumbo work:

First let's look at Jumbo's Facebook settings fixes. The app asks that you punch in your username and password through a mini-browser open to Facebook instead of using the traditional Facebook Connect feature. That immediately might get Jumbo blocked, and we’ve asked Facebook if it will be allowed. Then Jumbo can adjust your privacy settings to Weak, Medium, or Strong controls, though it never makes any privacy settings looser if you've already tightened them.

For Twitter, you can choose if you want to remove all tweets ever, or that are older than a day, week, month (recommended), or three months. Jumbo never sees the data, as everything is processed locally on your phone. Before deleting the tweets, it archives them to a Memories tab of its app.

I think its a good step forward for both users and platforms. Its essential users explore privacy settings of platforms need to make privacy simpler from users.
