It sounds like they proxy all the connections so all the mail passes through their servers. I wonder how long they keep it? I guess everyone’s emails become grist for AI.
I wonder what their terms of service say about that?
I guess that is the world we live in now. Not really my preference.
Yet another reason to move my computing to self hosted and possibly Linux.

Sadly, this is true.
@mrcool @railmeat @nielsk @unixtippse With M$, Google, Meta, AWS basically in charge of at least a large part of the Internet we can quietly already wonder how far we are on our way to a World like that.
And too many companies, and especially governments, are still quietly moving our personal data into the hands of these companies.
Certainly anyone working in an administrative position in government can work perfectly with a Linux based computer, but all they want is Windows.....
