Ask HN: Ethical and privacy focused companies?

I'm hunting around a little for some companies focused on ethical and privacy preserving applications / systems.

The obvious ones that spring to mind are Mozilla, DuckDuckGo and ProtonMail, but does HN have any other examples?

    Mojeek is the only horiziontal search engine with it's own crawler/index and which does not track you. Disclosure: I work at Mojeek.

    Other search engines mentioned here, and many more, are primarily syndication partners of Bing (mostly), Google or Yandex.
