- ZenoArrow 12y agoThank you for the suggestion throwawayaway, but I don't think Yandex is quite what I'm looking for. They might state that they don't share data with the NSA, but I wouldn't trust any company that relies on data mining for their profits with my email. I don't mind paying a small monthly fee for a secure email service. Does that expand my options?
- throwawayaway 12y agoqq also have a mail service, another flavour of poison! I don't know enough about mail providers to recommend a commercial one.
- ZenoArrow 12y agoOkay. Thanks anyway.
- csandreasen 12y agoThat's because Yandex is a Russian company - they share their info with the FSB. Ditto for QQ mentioned in the sibling comment and the Chinese MSS. Like throwawayaway said, pick your poison.
- ZenoArrow 12y agoYes, I know, that's why I don't have to 'pick my poison' I know that better options exist.
- kefka 12y agoIve always maintained to have servers in countries that do not get along with my government (USA). I also have servers in locations that abide by privacy laws (EU), although I know many of them serve as puppets for the US.
