30.01.2024: As you can see, there are still a few things missing here. I haven't got as far as I had planned through my doctoral thesis, disputation, etc.
outlook
BUT: The contents of the PRIVA SCORE for Messenger are already here. How in the book As described, it is about expanding the PRIVA SCORE. I have already subjected more than five messengers to the PRIVA SCORE and will make this available here shortly. I will also tackle the topic of cloud services. Help is very much appreciated!!
The new king
Interestingly, it turns out that the messenger, which represents the ultimate in data protection, BRIAR (dream score 320 points out of 330 possible). However, this conflicts with the concept of the PRIVA SCORE, which is to create a simple and convenient way for Anna, a normal user, to protect her data. Because a) Anna probably doesn't know anyone who uses Briar. The same applies to Matrix/Element..., which also perform very well. The usability/logic of these messengers is also somewhat more demanding and makes switching to a data protection-friendly messenger more complex - and therefore less likely.
More than a score?
This raises the question of whether there should be more than one PRIVA SCORE? One SCORE for the average user and a second score for tech nerds, activists and other more specific users?
I am still pondering this, but I think that there are many more competent contacts for such cases, such as the Kuketz Forum or Systemli.
