I really hope projects like this can take off. Honest, good-working people who don't want to profit in abundance selling others' personal data. Good luck!
Not to be a cynic for the sake of being a cynic, but with a service like this, how can they guarantee that they will continue to respect privacy moving forward? What's to prevent changes in policy within the platform?
Tim here, Founder of Bokeh. Respecting privacy is one of our core values, and I built that core value into the way we'll make money. We don't answer to advertisers, VCs, or just a small group of "celebrity" users. We answer to our paying customers.
Unless the photos are encrypted with zero visibility to the platform itself and located on offshore servers (see Tresorit), Bokeh (great name, BTW) will still be subject to all the same government intrusions as FB: censorship, surveillance, and warrants.
This reminds me of the site Ello. Not as much in the privacy aspect (not quite sure what Ello does), but in the "No algorithm" and content friendly attitude.
