In an effort to stem the bleeding from the backlash about their AI usage and their CEO’s meltdown, they decide to do the exact opposite and go all in.

…I’m tired, boss.

    Who did you end up moving to? I wouldn’t trust any corp that claims to be immune form court orders or interference from national agencies. No one that accepts credit card payments is really outside the reach of the Feds there. I’d rather be with a provider that doesn’t try to make false claims about what they can do. If France or the UK can strong arm proton into revealing payment info, I really doubt they’d stand up any better to the USA.

    If you are doing activities that might get you in trouble with a nation state please for the love of Schneier just use PGP and stop trusting ANY email provider with your messages.

      Haha I ended up moving to proton, which at the time (around 10 years ago) seemed like a good idea. Now I am just going to self host my email.

        Self hosting email is actually the worst though, isn’t it? Or do you have a plan for getting through spam filters?

          I did it once before to satisfy the email “requirement” for nextcloud (ended up getting rid of that self hosted email though) and when I sent emails to family members’ gmail and outlook accounts they didn’t get caught in the spam filter. I am aware that this is a small sample size, but I am willing to try it out at least.

            There’s no harm in trying. Would be great if it worked, ideally more people should self-host everything.
