I'm not sure what you mean by a local client. If you are suggesting that even the Tutanova users are decrypting things using browser crypto, that's absurd. I assumed this was all done either with a local client or a browser extens

I would certainly hope that no one stores unencrypted mail on their servers, but that's just a "promise not to look" situation, not an "impossible to look" situation. As for the "encrypted mailbox", what y

I think the point is that you don't actually benefit from DRM, you just aren't adversely affected by it. The only benefit to DRM for pirates is that it makes more people interested in consuming pirated works, and to the extent tha

Another thing to consider is that transitions in offset are not always tied to transitions in DST, and you can (rarely) get transitions in DST that do not involve an offset change. For example, Portugal changed their base zone to Western Eu
