For the sake of discussion, what about an open source decentralized blockchain that shows that your data is always encrypted and only readable by hosted apps that are open source that you approve to have access to your data?

I’m not sure if you’re joking or not. I tend to believe that simple designs improve security, so this sounds like the polar opposite.

But I guess I’m not the main target audience. Given the succees of Grammarly and other privacy invasive apps, people are happy to give away their data for convenience. The HN crowd might be a bit different however. Winning this crowd might or might not be an indication of success.
