Whistleblowing is the last of my concerns. I live in Italy and PEC is a thing, it’s a government certified email with legal value.
Technical rules for the formation, transmission and validation are mandatory: read receipts are automatic.
To use the service you must have a PEC box with one of the authorized managers. The publication of the list of authorized operators, the supervision and coordination is entrusted to the “Agency for digital Italy” (AgID).
This means that every citizen with a pec is paying to obtain an email from a bunch of friends of friends of the government, in a market with virtually no competition, and that your mail box is heavily surveilled but left unsecured.
