Caveat:
"What's encrypted in Gmail:
Email body and attachments, including inline images
Not encrypted in Gmail:
The header of the email, including subject, timestamps, and recipients lists"
- anonymoose33281 4y agoOh, that’s… that’s a little concerning.
- bpodgursky 4y agoI mean, come on, recipient lists you can't encrypt. Google needs to figure out where to send the email. Subjects is a concession to search and filters. Nobody is trying to shove PHI into a subject line... doesn't seem like a big deal imo.
- yazzku 4y agoOn the other hand Signal has "sealed sender", so while they know the recipient, they don't know the sender: https://signal.org/blog/sealed-sender/ https://signal.org/blog/sealed-sender/ I guess another example of why it's hard to retrofit email for security and privacy.
