Z:gnu-www-ja-digital-inclusion-in-freedom--3befb1-It's not that I'm specifically/en

It's not that I'm specifically worried that this site is malicious. I cannot trust the IEEE implicitly, since I disapprove of its restrictions on redistributing the papers it publishes, but there is little scope in that particular site's job for intentional mistreatment of its users (aside from the gratuitous surveillance). However, the point is not whether this particular site abuses its power. The point is that we should not let ourselves become accustomed to granting others that sort of power over us. The habit of handing over control of our computing to others is a dangerous one. The way to resist the practice is to refuse invitations to follow it.
