The BIGGEST Problem With Notion in 2020 (and most productivity apps)

Notion has a big issue. In fact, nearly every productivity app faces a major flaw. At it may be enough for some of us to stop using them.

I never thought much about data privacy, but 2020 has started to change things, as I realize just how much of my information is out there. While we are all aware that companies like Google and Facebook know a lot about us already, what about note-taking apps? They may know more about us than we think. In today's video, I'm going to explore one of Notion's BIGGEST problems, and explore what we, as users, can do about it.

⚠️Disclaimer: I want to highlight that I'm not telling you to not to stop using Notion altogether, since the issues presented here are not at all unique to Notion. In fact, they are the norm across nearly every application that we use. So, I hope this serves as a reminder to be careful of what you put online, regardless of the platform.
