    'There is a form of #privacy being violated— activist Maciej Cegłowski calls it #ambientprivacy: “the understanding that there is value in having our everyday interactions with one another remain outside the reach of #monitoring, and that the small details of our daily lives should pass by unremembered. What we do at home, work, church, school or in our leisure time does not belong in a #permanentrecord.

    Not every #conversation needs to be a #deposition.”'

    So I've been testing having personal/private accounts on mastodon to connect with close friends and family, and discovered something that could be improved.

    The privacy options are disorganized. The ability to lock an account, Opt-out of search engine indexing, hide your network, changing default toot privacy, and making your profile visible in profile directory, should all be together under a privacy section. #privacy #mastodon

    I remember seeing a section under this name previously.
