Indeed. "We don't protect your privacy" is not a selling point in 2016.
It sounds like you've made a Category 6C blunder by providing a solution to a different problem.
Nobody has the time to sift through two decades of emails and pick out the important things. Even if they did, the custom database thing to put them in will definitely not be cross platform, necessitating keeping a copy of the original mess of mbox/tar/etc files around to dig through.
No need to, it enforced itself. They simply MITM all TLS traffic, and then the peons have three choices:
Choice 1) you install the certificate, your traffic is snooped
Choice 2) you don't install the certificate, your browser throws up certificate warnings, you accept them, your traffic is snooped
Choice 2) you don't install the certificate, your browser throws up certificate warnings, you don't accept them, no traffic to snoop
What does it cost for a bank account in the UK? Are they pursuing collecting two monthy fees from each consumer?
So privacy for business, but not for us plebs? http://www.bbc.com/news/techno...

Those are actually borderline useless 128MB microsd cards with the filesystem tweaked [1] to show up as 16 or 64GB
Why do you keep taking the abuse? Stockholm syndrome?
It's free to switch to a less user hostile software system
Or someone dropped an anchor on it [1]
That doesn't seem like a productive way to spend your evenings and weekends.
Second law of computer security. Don't use platforms you don't trust. Do you trust Windows 10?
> Oh, and most of this shit (especially the wholesale user monitoring) isn't enabled on the corporate boxes. Businesses, after all, have a right to privacy. Because they are more human than human, now?
That would be because businesses pay for the corporate version. Your privacy is the price for this "free operating system".
An authority is a person who can tell you more about something than you really care to know.
