ProtonMail, Encrypted Swiss-Based E-mail. End To End Encryption E-mail. - Pulser - May 26, 2015
I just recently signed up for ProtonMail and I got to say it's really cool.
For those of you who haven't heard of it, it's an e-mail service created a couple years ago at CERN(the nuclear research facility with the big particle accelerator.)
They encrypt your login as well as your mailbox. It's all done client-side and ProtonMail only stores encrypted credential, meaning password recovery isn't possible. But it also means your mailbox and passwords aren't subject to release upon a court order.
PM is hosted in the Swiss Alps at a military command center and e-mails can be set for self destruct. I recently sent an e-mail from PM to my Hotmail and I couldn't even pull an IP address from the message source. It's really cool.
Anyway, I know a lot of you guys are looking for anonymity and I thought I would toss this service out there. It is REALLY good.
Here is some more information about the service. As a believer in anonymity and security I highly recommend this service.
Code
No advertisers.
No governments.
No third parties.
Only you have access to your inbox - this means no advertisers, governments, or third parties gaining access to your data. With ProtonMail, you can ensure private communications stay private.Code
Anonymity
No email or phone number required to create your account. No IP logs which can be tied to your username. We respect your right to privacy.* - VRUMM - May 26, 2015
Why did you remake this thread?

I junked my original thread a while ago because I posted it in "beginners hacking". Seeing as this isn't related to hacking I was under the assumption I posted in the wrong section.
I figured it would be better served to the community in the lounge. Sorry if I was wrong. 🤝

Hmm isn't this email service invite only though? Or am I confusing it for something else?

It isn't invite only. You just have to wait to be accepted since they get so many signup requests.

Just a heads up, the waiting time can vary from a few days to a few months.
