The Maps App That Collects Zero Data About You (Organic Maps Interview)

Every time you open Google Maps, it knows where you are, what you searched, how long you stayed, and where you went next. Organic Maps collects none of that. In this interview, Henry sits down with Alexander Borsuk, co-founder of Organic Maps, to talk about what mainstream maps apps are collecting, how an entirely offline-first approach changes the privacy picture, and where Organic Maps is headed next, including live public transit and opt-in traffic data.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Organic Maps: https://organicmaps.app• Organic Maps GitHub: https://github.com/organicmaps• OpenStreetMap: https://openstreetmap.org• OsmAnd: https://osmand.net🔎 RELATED VIDEOShttps://youtu.be/CWi82YljpPw🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE• Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup• All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE• Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech• Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/• Privacy Tools: https://privacytools.techlore.tech/• VPN Comparison Chart: https://vpn.techlore.tech/⏱️ TIMESTAMPS00:00:00 INTRO00:02:26 ORGANIC MAPS TEAM & STRUCTURE00:05:53 MAP PRIVACY IMPLICATIONS00:12:19 BUSINESS SEARCHING00:14:42 CLOUD-FIRST VS.
