Stop using your real email address - Aera - Apr 29, 2022 For a good level of privacy I recommend you use: 1. ProtonMail Provider 2. Simplelogin Alias Service Using simplelogin to create alias emails that forward incoming mails to your real email address is an easy way to avoid sites tracking, linking or spamming you. With the free plan you can have only 1 mailbox linked and: Code 15 aliasesThe mailbox you register with will be the one you create aliases for. On register you get 1 week premium. You can use catch-all and custom domains. You can disable any alias to stop incoming emails there. You can create a new alias and start receiving new emails to it. RE: Stop using your real email address - SIM-2502833 - Apr 29, 2022 Too bad proton mail reads your emails. RE: Stop using your real email address - 7 - Apr 29, 2022 use riseup.net.. I gave up on proton RE: Stop using your real email address - 2xTheTap115 - Apr 29, 2022 (Apr 29, 2022 03:38 AM)Aera Wrote: For a good level of privacy I recommend you use: Maybe aliases are a good solution not to make your address public, but it's not a perfect protection. As for secure communication, only end-to-end encryption of your messages can provide you with this (same as using u2f keys, password manager and long unique complicated passwords but this is a strong pick from the topic of the thread๐). In this case, it does not matter which e-mail provider you use, because you can be sure that it will not reach your messages even though they are on its servers.

Yes, not perfect but good enough for average user. ๐ RE: Stop using your real email address - SIM-2502833 - Apr 29, 2022 (Apr 29, 2022 04:05 PM)Aera Wrote: Source?

They respond to law enforcement requests despite being 'end to end encrypted' They force you to register in a way that links you to your identity. They are misleading at best, dishonest at worst. I wouldn't put my personal privacy in their hands. RE: Stop using your real email address - Aera - Apr 29, 2022 (Apr 29, 2022 04:09 PM)MrMcShroom Wrote: They don't let you register on tor. You can register on Tor ( https://protonmail.com/tor ) They are bound by law to do so and they release minimal information (they write this in their TOS) and they can't read your inbox emails. How do they link your identity? You can register with Tor, you can pay with crypto and you can do just captcha verification to register. There could be better email providers out there but ProtonMail is a really good service.

RE: Stop using your real email address - Athr - Apr 29, 2022 I use Tutanota when I need a privacy-oriented email.

I will see the video but from what I understand he is speculating on why he thinks it is a honeypot. (Apr 29, 2022 05:49 PM)Athr Wrote: I use Tutanota when I need a privacy-oriented email. Hey! I think Tutanota lacks some thing: No tor service They do not use OpenPGP They do not use AutoCrypt You need to use their partner "Proxystore" to buy Tutanota gift cards with Monero/BTC or pay directly to Tutanota with PayPal/Credit Card/Bank Transfer.

Thanks for the information as well. RE: Stop using your real email address - Jeffr0 - Apr 29, 2022 (Apr 29, 2022 05:08 PM)MrMcShroom Wrote: Just another trick from Proton to convince you. Watched the video. What email service do you recommend then? Cock.li? Edit: Also, does anyone have a Cock.li invite code to share?

The second quote answers the first... I would use riseup for now RE: Stop using your real email address - Aera - Apr 30, 2022 (Apr 29, 2022 11:26 PM)NulldB Wrote: The second quote answers the first... Riseup is probably better but needs an invite from a member. For an email provider you can register in 2 minutes to switch from Gmail or Outlook services ProtonMail is perfect. And I answered his arguments. https://hackforums.net/showthread.php?tid=6203356&pid=61428806#pid61428806 (Apr 29, 2022 07:28 PM)Jeffr0 Wrote: Watched the video.
