This is quite huge.

"Google just lost a massive antitrust trial over its sprawling search business, as US district judge Amit Mehta released his ruling, showing that he sided with the US Department of Justice in the case that could disrupt how billions of people search the web."

'Mehta ruled that Google spending billions on exclusive distribution agreements with companies like Apple helped the tech giant maintain monopolies in two markets, general search services and general text advertising."

@trangu I am using proton mail. It's fairly good. But there are controversies out there claiming it to be a honeypot. But again, there are controversies everywhere. It's your choice to use it ,you can choose any email provider you want with a bit of research.

Proton has made a VPN app, a Calendar App, Proton Mail , think they are building a ecosystem there too, maybe you would like to check that too, Good Luck!
