That's really interesting. I care a lot about email encryption -- I want to make something better and easier to use than current PGP programs. One major hurdle is apathy. Talking to potential users, even if we could wave a magic wand and make end-to-end encryption effortless, many people just don't care.
A few companies (and their associated governments) have vast central databases containing most of the world's mail. At one point that would've been considered dystopian, but today many people just take it for granted.
I've previously worked in financial technology, and even financial advisors dealing with sensitive client info would always just use plain email.

If you're comfortable telling me: what country and industry are you in?
Is it the norm to require PGP use on the job, or is your employer an exception?
