The article didn't cover email: Get off of the freebie services like Yahoo! and Gmail and go someplace else because we already know that these companies are in big-time cahoots with the government. Also, Google was working hard to get Clinton crime cabal elected to the point of messing with search results. WE WON'T FORGET.
FastMail is a decent paid service.
Or ProtonMail, Hushmail who market on privacy and security.
- schoen 10y agoThere is a trade-off about Gmail: They pay a large expert security team to work hard on security all the time (including both mitigating attacks on Google's own infrastructure, and detecting sophisticated phishing attacks against Gmail users). They pay a large expert legal team to work hard on legal issues all the time. They're so popular that metadata analysis actually starts to get difficult a lot of the time. They attract a lot of attention from governments. Governments have put resources into figuring out how to request data from Gmail. Gmail fights many of these requests vigorously, and ends up complying with many of them.
