    I’m trying to, but Proton made me throw up in my mouth a little.

    Now I have the option to do everything I was doing, but poorly AND spread across 3 vendors.

        CEO went full maga, was given an opportunity to correct, then doubled down. After receiving blowback he tripled down and then started lashing out at customers using official channels.

              So if I open an account with Posteo and then configure it so I’m using Apple’s Mail app on my mobile devices to read the email, am I defeating the privacy and/encription entirely? Posteo does not have a dedicated email client.

                No, not entirely. Posteo uses at least strong TLS (transport route encryption), meaning the message can hardly be intercepted between your (posteo) mailserver and the recipient mailserver. Everything else is unencrypted: the emails rest unencrypted on the posteo server (unless you activate crypt sorage, easy to do) and on the recipient server (e.g. Gmail). The latter will analyse your emails even if you never consented. All this can be stopped using Posteo, though. They provide a lot of tools help on this on their homepage. Look for PGP and inbound encryption.

    This move makes zero sense to me. Why, change it? It’s not it’s official name or international recognized name so wtf

      The USA is now part of a list of “sensitive countries” with authoritarian states with their own version of reality. When users in one of the countries on this list visit Google sites, they see that government’s version of reality. This is nothing new. Google does it all the time with disputed territories. It’s only news because it’s the first time the US has an authoritarian government.

      Here’s how it looks when visiting from a Mexican device with the language set to Australian English while located in Hungary.

      Distraction from:

      • closing down the Consumer Protection Agency, USAID, and the Education Agency
      • cutting off funding to the universities
      • stealing our student, treasury and health records while taking over the purse
      • not following federal judge’s orders
      • building an unregulated concentration camp in Cuba
      • etc.

      Edit: That’s why trump did it. All tech companies are in his hands now.

        No, there are no smokescreens. Trump is literally this stupid. Don’t attribute to maliciousness what can be attributed to narcissism.

          Thank you for giving me the opportunity to post this somewhere else:

          “The opposition party is the media,” Steve Bannon, who helped run Trump’s 2016 campaign, told PBS Frontline five years ago. “And the media can only — because they’re dumb and they’re lazy — they can only focus on one thing at a time.”

          So the solution, per Bannon? Overwhelm them.

          “All we have to do is flood the zone,” he said. “Every day we hit them with three things. They’ll bite on one, and we’ll get all of our stuff done, bang, bang, bang. These guys will never — will never be able to recover. But we’ve got to start with muzzle velocity.”
