- bheadmaster 3y agoYes, you are. That's a good argument for using PGP/GPG/some other secure communication protocol.
- SAI_Peregrinus 3y agoThat leaks the subject line (and other metadata), so I'd hardly call PGP over Email a secure communication protocol. You have to do something like use random UUIDs as subjects so you can track conversations without leaking what they're about. It's pretty good privacy for the message body, with pretty shit usability if you want security.
- jojobas 3y agoOf course you are, and of course Gmail sends the fed everything they asked for. There was one email provider that didn't, remember what happened to it?
