Do you mean to say e.g. Proton is not private?
I'm aware of five eyes, but how would that make Proton not private? Simply stating "n eyes" and "agreements with America" comes across strongly as unfounded conspiracy. Can you be much more specific?
@IceFoxX @staircase Proton faces the same problems that any commercial organisation faces in that they have to operate according to their local laws and cooperate with their local law enforcement.
They will offer a degree of privacy which is generally useful but you can't expect them to protect you if you are planning a revolution :)
Which alternatives do you propose then? Which service running in which country would you propose to use?
That's just being defeatist. Not my jam. Thanks.
Email aliases are typically used for account signups so said services have no way of connecting accounts. If the alias provider is at least as private and secure as your regular email provider it can be a net win. PGP is rarely an option here, and usual caveat that email is already a nightmare bad thing for authenticating accounts.
I am amazed thats what you took from my comment.
I am trying to find what the heck you think you are replying to.
