<p>The last part of this course focuses on choosing services.</p>
<p>It’s important to keep in mind that while HTTPS protects your data in transit, once it arrives at the destination - the website - this website sees and collects all your data. <strong>When choosing a platform, tool or service think about the business model of the company behind it</strong>. Is their aim to monetise the data they collect about you and others (e.g. by selling it, putting together detailed profiles for advertisers, etc.)?</p>
<p>Are you comfortable with this? If not, consider trying out some alternative, free and open source tools instead: A great place to start is your search engine!</p>
<section style="border: 2px; border-style: solid; border-color: #66cc99; padding: 1em;">
<p>As part of the course, try changing your default search engine from Google Search to DuckDuckGo - the search engine that doesn't track you.</p>
