I also don't like Apple, but I agree 100% with giving them credit for sticking to their principles on protecting their customer's data.

If we don't stand up for our rights, we lose our rights.

“Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.” - Benjamin Franklin

$20 Million bribe to ICANN to get them to allow a price hike.

At that rate, it will drive out small businesses from having their own domains or internet presence.

Verisign has a monopoly on .com registry.

Passwords/passcodes are not protected under the First Amendment, they are not considered speech. They may be protected, as a key on a keyring, under the Fourth or Firth Amendments. But those same amendments provide for a legally obtained warrant, if there is enough verified evidence in support of probably cause, to legally justify such a warrant.

If it's a legally obtained warrant, based upon valid proof of probably cause, negating the Fourth and Fifth Amendments, as the Constitution does provide for a legally obtained warrant.

Calling it speech is just a way to try to muddy the waters and make the issue unclear to the masses, in the hope of getting support from those who have never read the Constitution or researched the legal precedents regarding these issues.

Try ProtonMail

Based in Switzerland. End-to-end encryption. Even the admins cannot access their user's e-mail. and it's free.

Falls under strict Swiss privacy laws, out of the reach of other governments.

To any country that makes encryption either illegal, or treats it as eminent domain for the government to have access to it's citizen's communications.

This is the same crap the UK is proposing, and the same crap the US is trying to implement. It's time for the citizens, and thereby the private services providers, to stand up and say "No More!!!".

Start boycotting Cloudflair's customers. When their customer's business it's adversely affected, they'll force Cloudflair to work more appropriately with the Tor community, and find a solution that works properly.

Moderating insightful it's not necessarily agreement, merely acknowledging the view as well thought out and with intellectual merit. You can see it as insightful and still disagree.

You're so right, he doesn't have a clue what he's talking about. He's probably on the FBI's payroll, considering the feds had once paid off RSA to weaken RSA encryption to begin with.

Even easier, take away their source of revenue.

They can take my encryption when they can pry it from my cold, dead hands.

Might as well bring back Nazi Germany too.

True then, true now...if only people weren't such sheep.

Simple, the admins cannot access the emails of their users, it's encrypted on the servers. The most the police can how to get, of they can get anything at all, would b header and routing information, which is the meta data, not the content.

Use ProtonMail, it'll never go the Lavabit route, and will not risk suffering what brought about the Lavabit debacle.
