What changed and why?
Nothing changed, really. /u/Polsaker was looking at it and noticed that it was complete nonsense. We made a placeholder policy two years ago when the site wasn't even called Phuks, and it was kind of forgotten about because the only focus was on the TOS. I've actually opened the privacy policy page a few times and never made it past the third line because it was so boring, but it did have stuff in there that does not even remotely apply to the site.
So basically, this is privacy policy v1.0. Nothing has changed, there are no things we added that infringed upon the old policy, it's just we didn't really have a relevant policy to begin with. As a side note, if there are any questions you have or suggestions relating to the privacy policy, now is probably a good time.
I can't deal with this level of transparency from the administration, I'm heading back to Voat. At least they leave the user base completely in the dark about even the most basic things over there.
