Hi everyone,

I'm looking for recommendations on free (or freemium) AI assistants that meet these criteria:

✅ Strong capabilities – Can handle complex questions and research. ✅ Privacy-respecting – Doesn't train on user data, preferably E2E encrypted. ✅ Ethical stance – Not complicit in oppression or human rights violations (Palestine, sudan, uygur, etc). ✅ Not on BDS list – Companies that aren't supporting or profiting from occupation.

Which AI tools have you found that respect both privacy AND human rights?

I'd really appreciate honest recommendations and experiences. Trying to find tools that align with my values without sacrificing functionality.

Thanks in advance! 🤝

There's a tech incubator, i think its called "tech for palestine".

They recommend thaura.ai, it was started by 2 syrians who felt there was a gap in this space.

I think there might also be qaf.ai which is more islamic oriented but definitely pro-pali.

Then there is also confer.to which was started by signal co founder that offers encrypted AI (meaning it uses fancy math that can work on encrypted data without decrypting it), though im not too familiar on their stance on palestine and other issues.

They decrypt the data inside the VM, and run it in plaintext there. No fancy math. As far as I am aware, the dream of doing operations on encrypted data is still mostly theoretical. Still, worth considering, they are going a long way to ensure that the VM is un-tampered with, and Moxie Marlinspike generally knows their shit.
