No. It’s an inherit compromice you have to deal with. At least with email hosting. There are services where you can proof that no one was listening in but with email thats not possible.

I’m not saying they do that. But you have to trust them that they don’t do it. You can never proof it.

Yeah, thats the issue. At some point you have to trust the provider or host yourself. I know from friends who worked at my email provider that they actually encrypt and not save it but thats a luxury not everyone has.

You can’t verify that they actually run that on their servers.

If they still hold the private key, your mails aren’t encrypted. And even if it’s the case you still have to trust them that they don’t save the plaintext email somewhere else before they run tbeir encryption.

Proton always felt like a scam to me. Their claims on privacy and security are questionable at best.

We could simply stop using amazon services and they won’t be build anymore.

Yes but only yours. That’s still better and only having to knock on one door to get everything.

One of the design goals is that they don’t have a user database, so governments etc can’t knock down their door demanding anything. By using phone numbers your “contacts” are not on their servers but local on your phone.

Mental illness.

They haven’t been for quite some time now.

Instead of looking up Amazon prices or works be nice to use price comparisons such as Geizhals or idealo. But these are very different depending on the region you’re looking in.

Geizhals has very new nice filters already so you don’t need this tool at all. Other regions might be different.
