Yep. Find me a service provider that risks being arrested to deny lawful demands. I’ll wait.

If you look at what data they handed over you’ll realize this is a positive thing. You have verifiable proof that the contents of your mails is private, and you’re calling it a negative thing that they have your IP address??

Do you have articles showing Tutanota refusing to do the same?

I am not here to entertain Whataboutery. I am not a shill for Tuta Mail and will abandon it as well if it does the same thing. I don’t rely on e-mail for communications. I only suggested Tuta Mail in the other thread because it is the least worst of them all.

If your argument is “don’t use email”, you’re right, but doing a bad job articulating it.

important to emphasize here that email is inherently not very private. Proton is one of the best email providers for privacy, but for this gs you really need to be private (eg organizing protests in less-than-friendly countries) you shouldn’t use email at all.

Which is precisely why I said “as any email service can be”.
Caboose12000@lemmy.world 9 months ago
yes I agree with you lol just trying to be extra clear for people who might be confused

Does proton do anything other than encrypting the email file? TLS should be enough to encrypt the transfer.
