FYI, Privacy Guides is a shitshow. It was formerly privacytools.io[1], and in 2019, the creator[2] of privacytools.io stopped contributing[3] and a new contributor[4] immediately focused on donations[5], became the admin[6] and took control[7] of most assets, including donations but excluding the domain and Twitter account[8]. In 2021, the creator of privacytools.io launched a new privacytools.io[9] and added affiliate links[10], and the Privacy Guides team shut down r/privacytoolsIO rather than return it[11] to the creator. Like I said, a shitshow.
I don't really care about petty arguments between the contributors. Is the information available there reliable or not? If not, can you suggest an alternative?
I didn't knew about it when I commented. About the .io page: Affiliate links are always a no-go. You can't trust a source that profits from you buying into their recommendations.
Edit: I didn't check if anything OP says is correct. Just asuming and following along ...
