    Give both a shot. Both are the only ones (I know of) having zero storage access as the only option; meaning is enforced. You may have mailbox.org as a third one (E2EE must be enabled manually there).

    I ended up with Proton as I experienced it far more feature rich, flexible and mature. And the Bridge is a must for my use case. In addition, it builds on PGP which can be used to have E2EE communication with people outside of Proton. (yes, I've tried Mailvelope with Tuta; that does not work at all. And doing it manually with copy/paste and PGP in an ordinary text esitor is a waste of time and also turned out error prone one the receiving end; Tuta mails gets mangled on the way).

    But if you're a very lightweight mail user, Tuta might fit your need. I generally think of Tuta more like a messenger service with SMTP transport support.

    Also beware, importing mails to Tuta is still not possible (unless that has changed the last months). And exporting mails are also a mess. I have migrated one user from Tuta to Proton, and I had to manually fix mail headers to get them imported. The mail export was quite poor, tbh. It took me longer than importing a handful of users from a Zimbra server to Proton - using the same Proton Mail Import/Export tool.

    Finally, I just want to mention that Tuta is a company with less than 20-30 employees, serving something like 10 million users. Proton is probably closer to 500 employees these days, serving more than 100 million users. So these organisations are quite different. Which also means they have quite different approaches for developing services further and capabilities to handle sudden challenges.

    "" klingt so gefährlich. Drehen wir den Spiess doch einfach um, und zeigen den lieben Nutzern, dass sie doch im Namen des Fortschritts freiwillig auf Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung verzichten wollen. Und es vielleicht nicht einmal merken:

    Damit die noch besser auf eine persönlichen Bedürfnisse eingehen kann, darf sie alle deine E2E-verschlüsselten Nachrichten über eine Hintertür lesen. Und zu den Servern schicken.

    Are they though?

    Centralised moderation teams often lack the context to know what they're looking at. Fediverse admins each take care of a small, well-defined bit of overall moderation; the bit that affects accounts on their server. They know what's acceptable in their community.

    "It is just much harder for a volunteer-run, distributed system to roll out protections like E2EE than a centralized company."

    Explain the logic underlying that conclusion. Counterexample, the Matrix network. A distributed system, much of which is volunteer-run.

    @Internxt Good article but would be better if the writer mentioned clear pro and con list for each. Also list closed source as con for those that are. Also, doesn't have enabled by default and the separate encryption app isn't officially fully supported last I heard.

    Wow - apparently WhatsApp's design allows to gather information on which devices the client is installed, and Meta said it's all by design https://m.opnxng.com/@TalBeerySec/hi-meta-whatsapp-with-privacy-6d646c5aa3bc

    Reminds me of a story back in 2017, when a flaw in encryption was found in WA and they replied with "it's not a bug, it's a feature" - and in response, my friends and I decided to add PGP encryption to WA Web as a hackathon project :blobfoxlaugh:

    There is a lot to build in
    the digital rights and data privacy realm.

    Embrace the arrival of
    more trustworthy end-to-end encrypted and privacy-focused messaging apps, email services, VPN services, browsers, operating systems, mobile devices, security tokens, etc.

    Embrace the development of
    more organizations, groups, and projects growing to defend our digital rights and fight to make the future a brighter place.
