The only way to solve it is to own your own domain and to make sure that you always pay for it. The catch is that you have to do this from the start.
I'm hopeful that governments will eventually realize how impactful this is, and mandate email provides to implement forwarding services after an account is closed and they have verified your identity, possibly via government ID.
- Beijinger 3y agoThis is true. But let's face it. I don't know of any self hosted email that is as good as gmail. Maybe fastmail?
- qingcharles 3y agoI've used Fastmail for about 20 years now. It is awesome. Gmail is just a backup for me.
- beeboobaa3 3y agoThat's why I use gmail with my own domain. If they ever fuck me, I can point my MX records at a new provider. I do have to pay them for the privilege of using my own domain, but at least that way I'm not the product.
