  • Good to know about other users experiences. I’ve been with them for 20 years and apart from some downtime in the early years they have been solid. I don’t really have an issue to what their staff can access, it whether there had been any data breaches that I was unaware of. I’ve not looked at Proton but I was curious enough to look at Tutanota based on Germany as they have a presence on the fediverse.








  • If you have the choice, I encourage you to choose to avoid these companies. But for those of us struggling to make ends meet, we’re stuck having to give business to companies that not only help create people like me, but depend on our need for them. Please remember that when there are calls that everyone has to stop using them.

    Principle comes at a price not everybody can afford.

    And this is the way they get big and grab their market share because they can afford to undercut the more ethical competition. When that competition ceases to trade, then they’ll bump up their prices. This is capitalism (at least, as I understand it.)
