I don't understand why people ever believed Protonmail's privacy claims to begin with? Not that I have reason to doubt them either, but their security seems nothing more than an unverified promise? I'm skeptical of my privacy

Interesting, thank you. It seems that the only permitted uses of this are for government-led investigations or to do things related to your car. Any other use without express consent of the individual is expressly prohibited.

There are some interesting experiences in this article and it starts strong. But as it turns into a critique of society it is weird how she criticizes the unmeritocratic realities of her field while at the same time lauding diversity hires
