You can fetch a user's PGP public key via their HKPS endpoint, for example https://mail-api.proton.me/pks/lookup?op=get&search=username... . The one who apparently doesn't support PGP at all is Tuta. Ideal

I disagree. We write left to right, so it makes sense when the URL is essentially two parts ("external" and "internal" in regards to "place on the network", "location on the server") they are written

Representatives from multiple parties are there, and there is at least a police officer nearby in case something happens. The people doing the intimidation could be kindly asked to leave, or not-so-kindly made to leave.

But they aren't abusing their market power, are they? I mean, they are too big and should definitely be regulated but I don't think you can argue they are much of a monopoly when others, at the very least Google, Microsoft, Oracle

What if you made it generate a URL with each character-position instead of just the character? For example, instead of making `hacked` be `0.0.0.0/h`, `0.0.0.0/a` and so on; it invokes `0.0.0.0/1-h`, `0.0.0.0/2-a`... tha

I believe the idea is not to provide any interest rate, precisely so people will be inclined to hold their savings in a "regular" bank, and only use the digital euro as a "wallet" with amount limits and no interest, simi
