This is the official blog of personaldata.info, covering topics related to cybersecurity and online privacy. The goal of this blog is to make these topics accessible and easy to understand for all, regardless of technical background.

Why Is This Site So Simple?

If you have been following personaldata.info for a while, you might know that the blog used to look very different. Due to pricing increases by our hosting provider, we were forced to move away from Ghost and use a lighter blog. So, we switched to Hugo, a super-fast static site generator. This allows cheaper hosting while aligning with our small web ideology.
