In an unexpected mask off “secure” email and VPN provider Proton took the stance of siding with the fascist MAGA Reps. Proton’s services are no option for me and many others any longer. Let’s collect and discuss alternatives (E2E encrypted email and VPN) here 🔐👇

Always try to provide:

-Server location (jurisdiction)

-Governance

-Integrity/trustworthiness/transparency

-User experience/ease of use (grade 1 to 10, lets take Proton as a benchmark with an 8)

-Pricing and links

If you know alternative setups, feel free to share, too.

    It’s in California, and that’s where the data is stored. It’s not stored with end to end encryption, so I understand your worry, and unfortunately Port87 wouldn’t be a good choice for your needs if that’s not acceptable.

    In the future I might make the system work with locally hosted databases, so you would still use my SMTP servers, but everything else would be locally hosted. That’s probably a while in the future though. I have some priorities before exploring that option.
