## Design Tools
**Adobe**'s dominance in design tools restricts designers' choices and compromises their privacy. Its [lack of Linux support](https://helpx.adobe.com/in/download-install/kb/operating-system-guidelines.html), confines designers to Windows or macOS. Plus, Adobe's [data collection via Creative Cloud](https://tosdr.org/en/service/417) and [trackers](https://reports.exodus-privacy.eu.org/en/reports/com.adobe.psmobile/latest/) further amplifies privacy concerns. They also may be [using users' work to train their AIs](https://mastodon.art/@Krita/109632425661190494), potentially causing intellectual property problems. For these reasons, designers can consider using open-source, privacy-respecting alternatives, bypassing most of these issues.
