I don't want to sound snarky, but, so what? If you want privacy you still have to encrypt data end-to-end, not end-to-[google|microsoft|yahoo|facebook]-to-end.
And, anyway, [google|microsoft|yahoo|facebook] should not know about your stuff just like the nsa or anyone else who is not the intended recipient.
- mortehu 13y agoIt's not up to Google to encrypt your e-mail end-to-end, though. That you have to do yourself. This technology exists and is called PGP. Obviously Gmail's HTML interface can't work with these e-mails, until you get some way to sandbox part of the DOM on the client. Search won't work either.
