It is a wonderful world we live in. Everything from salary negotiations to love affairs is on someone else's servers, all in plaintext. Apart from email this also applies to Slack, which is a goldmine for keeping dossiers on developers. This is one thing the authoritarians like Biden (Clipper Chip, Patriot Act) won't want to fix. There will be no law that companies with more than 100 employees must accept mail from individual servers (they would still have the correspondence anyway, but it would be a start). There will be no law that all mail must be encrypted.
