evacideI'm just a girl, incrementing the counter on the number of times I have been sent a plaintext email from a Protonmail user telling me that the message is encrypted.
davecb 🇨🇦@evacide Can you expand on that? ProtonMail loudly claims to be e2e encrypted to me, but the claims seem less than credible if mails is sent to a proton.me address from an unencrypted place like gmail
Bill, organizer of stuff@davecb @evacide They are very clear in their marketing and documentation that e2e only works if you are sending between Proton addresses. They are more important as a Google alternative... I wish they would focus on that instead.
(Edit: to be clear, this is a response to @davecb . I know @evacide knows what she's talking about.)
@CAWguy has moved
Alex Wilson@CAWguy @wcbdata @evacide This is just slightly automated pgp and has basically all the same ergonomic issues. Encryption is lost the instant anyone forwards or ccs someone outside the network and there's no way to fix that without purpose built clients. At that point you might as well be using chatmail or signal.
