Hi All, still trying to figure out which email to go for. Thank you for the previous helpful posts. I am wondering which email providers have built-in encryption at rest ? I know that tutanota e protonmail (body and attachments for the latter) do it. It seems that Posteo does it, but needs to be activarted if I am not mistaken. Any other providers have it? Can’t find the answer re: Mailbox Thank you
Proton in Switzerland is privacy-focused with full encryption. I went with them because Swiss privacy laws are stronger than most other places–definitely better than my home country
Swiss privacy laws are stronger
This is mostly true, but even Switzerland has its fair share of shady stuff. The Swiss federal police was caught using the Pegasus malware (source is in German)
The goverment also went along with CIA-led mass surveillance
'Preciate you. I hadn’t heard anything about this, and it’s good information to be aware of. Thanks!
I use proton. In part because they claim good encryption, but also because they have decent pricing for bringing your own domain, and understand that an individual might have a domain just for them.
Seconding Proton. Their suite of other apps are great as well. I’m hoping they do some kind of similar bridge thing for calendar and contacts soon, because without that I basically can’t use them, but the other apps are great. VPN & Drive I use all the time.
Every provider we list on our site does: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/email/
Thank you, very useful. For some reason Posteo is not on the list
