It's inevitably weirdos emailing me something that they think is top secret, but is actually so stupid that no one would care even if they messaged it in sky-writing to me.

4-5 other posters have emailed me using proton mail, with weird ideas about suing someone, or getting rach to do something.

i keep it because i get some ridiculous discount on their 'visionary' plan for being part of their initial crowdfunded launch. it's all the max versions of everything they offer + they give me additional storage every year (up to 6.5tb), for up to 6 users for like $12/month.

their vpn is 180

The thinking seems to be that European governments are scrupulous about your privacy and would never do anything sketchy. I thought the First and Fourth Amendments were worth something but I guess not

switzerland co's like proton will cooperate with international law enforcement requests, but i imagine it's a lot harder to subpoena an account with them vs gmail or outlook

I'm not talking about subpoenas, I'm talking about people getting shaken down, blackmailed the extorted. Fuck any foreigner who wants me to do shady business over foreign channels, but you go ahead and order darknet heroin using protonmail

you can just use a protonmail account that you never signed up for with your real name and verified with a burner account

So Protonmail is great as long as I never use it to share info about my real identify? Where do I sign up?

they can't read it anyway its end to end encrypted. only thing they could read is the metadata and subjectlines. so the subpoena doesn't matter. they don't have the keys to decrypt it.

true, but they can start logging ip addresses moving forward + by giving up secondary account recovery info (alternate email, phone number) an agency that really wanted to find their way into the account probably could

The data will be stored until we have methods to decrypt it. They just popped some Silk Road bros with old blockchain data no one could use until we developed new technological capabilities many years after the fact

This is like saying "I've never met a normal person who talks about watching porn" in the 80s. Sure you haven't. But everyone did.
