Fantastic newsletter Glenn. I do most of those already, but need to check out privacy.com. I also shared it with some friends & others that blow me off on this type of thing.Somehow it's paranoia to keep your info & conservations private!

Fantastic newsletter Glenn. I do most of those already, but need to check out privacy.com. I also shared it with some friends & others that blow me off on this type of thing.Somehow it's paranoia to keep your info & conservations private!
I've noticed that when Parler.xxm & the App were taken down by AWS, Google Play, & suspended by Apple that a bunch of people in my contacts started showing up in Signal & Telegram. Meaning they downloaded the App & created an account. Hopefully more & more will start using these services.
You can get a Protonmail account for free, you just get a small amount of space & not all the features. You can still send end to end encrypted email if the person(s) your emailing also have a proton account. You can also send an encrypted email to any domain as long you give the recipient a pword you create before sending. Give it to them over the phone or some other method. It works, as I've done it. I think you can also setup your public & private PGP keys in the free account.
I'd recommend this: When signing up for a protonmail account, make it Jay1234xxxxxxx@protonmail.ch not .com. You can choose which domain in the beginning, but can't change back. You may be able to switch to .com, but not .ch. Reason being is the US owns .com & the Swiss own .ch. If for some reason they wanted data from protonmail that wasn't encrypted, they could possibly get a warrant & get that data. If it's.ch, the Swiss gov would probably say take a hike. I'm not a lawyer, but I've heard this from other experts in secure mail, especially Protonmail..
Thanks Jay. Great comments. I never thought about the .ch version of ProtonMail. Yes, I noticed a lot of people moving when Parler was deleted, but the move over happened before that because of Whatapps change in privacy policy. I think people are finally waking up to the importance of privacy.
