  • Literally the Only Marketing Podcast I Listen To

    I’m an artist, and you have to be careful with some marketing podcasts because the lessons don’t always apply to us—but this one does. The conversations are so relevant, and it’s refreshing to learn new ways to think and share that have nothing to do with social media.

🔑 Why Privacy Matters (Even if Google Knows Everything) — with Patricia Egger, Head of Security for Proton
Q: What are some practical steps individuals can take to start improving their privacy without a full platform switch?
Two strategies: start with a product you don't currently use (like a password manager) to ease into privacy tools, and use a gradual switch with compatibility features like email import/m forwarding to avoid “all or nothing” shifts.
🔑 Why Privacy Matters (Even if Google Knows Everything) — with Patricia Egger, Head of Security for Proton
Q: What does privacy by default mean in practice for Proton?
It means users don't need specialized knowledge to have privacy protected; privacy is built into the product and accessible to anyone who knows how to use email or a VPN.
