PGP and implementations based on it are the only secure option. Anything that is a web app is inherently insecure. Thunderbird supports it on both desktop and mobile.
For anyone who’s unaware, gmail is scanning your messages to sell you things and train its AI. Not that that matters to most gmail users. That they would lie about EE2E is par for the course.
Why don’t we move on from using email for anything important? Perhaps matrix. It works like email. Or some new Fediverse platform for this, with end to end encryption of course.
Email was the original fediverse.
There’s like nothing wrong with email
Dude, I was telling people about tutamail on my other account and they blocked me from this instance. Why? I don’t understand. (.-.) Oh well, as long as the mail alternatives are getting out there in some way.
I’m curious if anyone sends encrypted emails to gmail users, and how they do it. I just turn off encryption when sending to them.
I always send encrypted mails to friends or family. I’m using StartMail their encrypted email service and I put the encrypted password the same as my initials. First it started with just a question through text like “why and what is the password?”. I told that it’s just my initials. From now on I just send everything encrypted and it doesn’t bother me if I don’t hear anymore from them trough mail. Privacy has to start somewhere, eventually if 90% of the people use encryption it’s a matter of time before it’s normal to ask what their password is or open the email because it’s encrypted. I feel like nowadays many people won’t open encrypted mails because it’s encrypted and it’s far from ‘normal’.
