There have been a lot of free email services over the years, but Juno was one of the first. They even included free dial-up access to their system.

If I were a tech or software dev hiring manager, I would automatically reject all applications coming from free email services like gmail, protonmail, tutanota, outlook, etc. A nerd or hacker should already have their own domain name and email server, or institutional email account.

Also, using a free email service for any personal business is a HUGE data security risk, not just for the applicant, but for the company responding to the applicant. State agencies can snarf such communications to glean inside business information, then sell that information to your competitors, which is probably happening somewhere right now as I write this.

If we left behind the oppressive systems that deprive people of their very freedom, what could we create instead?

I've been looking to move away from Google Mail/Cal etc. I can't afford the popular Open-Sourced private addresses like Proton (I'm only a lowly IT monkey). Then I remembered that @Vivaldi provides a free email alternative, I already like their browser, you can encrypt you email and (best of all) still use 3rd party apps (Sorry Skiff, this turned out to be a deal breaker). Very happy with it so far, will be part of my new blog series.
