Hi everyone,

We’re back with the most popular blogs from last month:

💜 We have joined forces with r/StandardNotes! In the coming months, we hope to find ways to make Standard Notes more easily accessible to the Proton community.

🎭 In case you missed it, Proton now alerts you if an online service you’re registered for with a Proton Mail address has had a data breach or has been hacked. In the meantime, in early May, we have also implemented a similar service for your Proton Pass aliases and passwords.

🔑 Speaking of passwords, passkeys have remained a big topic: we’ve discussed the Big Tech’s implementation of them, as well as whether they’ll completely replace passwords in the future.

As usual, you were interested in practical matters too, like: 📱 how to create an email account without the phone number verification, 💧 what to do if your data leaks, and 🧩 how to protect yourself from social engineering.

We’ve also analyzed several services’ privacy practices closely. You have been most interested in how Whatsapp treats your photos, and the security of Google Chrome’s password manager and iCloud Keychain.

We’ll keep rounding up top blog articles each month for you to make sure you’re all caught up on the latest news and tips. You can follow our blog here (we have an RSS feed, too), and we welcome all your suggestions about what we should write about next! Let us know in the comments below.
