- yacine_ 4y agovery simple, just don't read the email
- SV_BubbleTime 4y agoWhich will force drive signed communications. So... win.
- muyuu 4y agoYea in a sense it will be a win, but it will up the stakes. A lot of people with get scammed. A lot more than right now.
- SV_BubbleTime 4y agoDisagree. Adding signed communications as the default to replace email's completely nonsense zero encryption model is not upping the stakes. Email is the most successful federated software in the universe, but it's fucking time to get some encryption and authn.
- muyuu 4y agoyou are having a good laugh if you think the average granny is going to do that anytime soon
- MichaelZuo 4y agoWhy would they? If actually implemented it will be a few checkboxes behind a prompt next time they login.
- SV_BubbleTime 4y agoYea, lol, what was I thinking!? It’s not like my granny uses TLS ECDH SHA1 right!? Oh, wait, everyday she does? The tools adapt; email has never had to.
- muyuu 4y agothe tools will only adapt when a large number of people have got burnt as always happens
