Comment on Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts at Request of Cybersecurity Agency
kadup@lemmy.world 4 days agoEverything related to privacy and security requires as a fundamental premise that you select your threat model. Who are you? What data do you want to protect? From whom, and how bad would it be to fail?
Most people skip this step, and then keep acting either surprised or over/under reacting to any given news. There are people out there that can’t use email - regardless of who hosts what. There are people out there that would be fine with Gmail.

I use Google suite. Use it for work stuff, general bullshit. Works great. None of the data going over it is of particular import (to me).
There are things that I believe require a better handling, and they’re handled differently, all the way up to physical media.
It just might be naive, in this day and age, to think a company won’t cooperate with authorities. Yes, there are exceptions, but they either fear repercussions or they were never built well enough to keep authorities out in the first place.
