Your Phone Knows More About You Than Your Family Does
Every app, every permission, every default setting — quietly collecting, sharing, and selling. Let’s shut that down.
Defaults Are Designed to Exploit You
When you unbox a new phone or set up a new laptop, the default settings are optimised for the manufacturer and their advertising partners — not for you. Location tracking is on. Microphone access is granted to apps that don’t need it. Your contacts are synced to servers you’ve never heard of. Your passwords are weak, reused, or stored in plain text.
This isn’t a conspiracy. It’s a business model. And you’re the product.
Most people are starting here — at Protocol 6, fully exposed — simply because no one ever showed them what to change.

FAQ
No. We’re changing settings and swapping apps, not modifying the operating system. Everything stays fully functional — just more private.
Most individual device hardening sessions take 2 hours. A full phone + laptop + all accounts package typically takes 2-3 sessions.
Most privacy tools are free and open-source. If there are any paid recommendations (like ProtonMail Plus), I’ll explain why and you decide.
Family packages are available. I can harden everyone’s devices and set up a shared family privacy strategy.
