      I read through the whole list, and monero was the only decent privacy recomendation I could find. Everything else was US-hosted. A lot of it was just recommendations from Apple and Google on “privacy” services they offer.

      No mention of syncthing, matrix, xmpp, even with sections dedicated to those categories.

    Too bad private email access is essentially dead. Any service not requiring another email or phone number to sign up gets quickly shut down. A casualty in the war on whistleblowers.

        Exactly; email is digital post cards and always has been.

        Of course, that means I can encrypt a message and use someone else’s email account to send it :)

    Just saw this. Feel like the alternate title could have been “When digital privacy went mainstream”, “I was into privacy before it was cool”, or finally “No I am not wearing a tin foil hat!”
