  • I don’t fully agree. Mails from companies ( password resets, ads, … ) aren’t necessarily passing by Google/m$ servers. So you’ve got that privacy. If you use an aliasing service ( which they also seem to offer ) then they can’t tie it directly to the same person/email.

    So there definitely is some privacy gain, though if you’re emailing myfriend@gmail.com and mypartner@outlook.com, the whole conversation is available to that bigtech firm as the email will be sent in plaintext.

    I’d say it’s a step in the right direction.

    I don’t know atomic mail, so I can’t vouch for them. I’m also not able to do proper research on it right now. So maybe somebody else can pitch in on that part.
