Six years ago, Meike joined our support team and has done an amazing job. Now she is moving on to new challenges. We
would like to take a moment to thank Meike for her dedication in giving the best support possible to lots and lots of
Tutanota users during the last years and wish her all the best for the future!
Face recognition systems use your online pictures for training purposes. These AI systems are much more potent
than what surveillance-dystopians like Orwell might have imagined in their worst nightmares. Fortunately, new tools help
you to stop facial recognition.
The Tutanota template functionality increases your productivity immensely: Prepare email templates for
standard requests and
share the templates with your team. Our new templates let you answer lots of email request with a few clicks
only.
In 2021, Tutanota continues its growth and so does our team. Please welcome Brandon and Thomas with us! We expect that
many more people will join our team here in Hanover so if you are passionate not only about privacy, but also about
programming, be sure to apply with us.
Today we are sending an open letter to the European Commission together with
Boxcryptor, Cryptomator, Mailbox.org, mail.de, Mailfence, Praxonomy, and Tresorit to draw attention to the dangers of undermining
encryption and people's privacy. Mass surveillance will not stop terrorism or child sexual abuse.
On February 25 we identified a possible Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)
vulnerability on one of our webpages separate to our webmail client, desktop
and mobile apps, which deals with processing payment information from our
payment provider Braintree. We immediately published a server-side fix to
remove the vulnerability and updated clients with the next release.
The beginning of 2021 saw one of the worst hacks of company data around the world: Several zero-day vulnerabilities in
Microsoft Exchange were exploited and thousands of companies were affected. This attack is another example why we need
strong end-to-end encryption.
At Tutanota we are building an encrypted, privacy-respecting email service that puts the users first - not the advertisers.
However, when we planned our latest subscription changes, we made some severe mistakes that were not up to our own standards.
We would like to apologize for these mistakes and explain our lessons learned.
As Tutanota is growing in popularity, the demand for business features is growing as well. With this release, we are
meeting our users' needs by introducing the brand-new Business feature. With this new feature you can send out of office
notificaitons, calendar invites, add multiple domains to your account and more. Check out our full release notes.
Privacy is hard to get in today's internet. That's because lots of free websites and online services depend on tracking
you and selling your data to advertisers. Nonetheless, it is not impossible to protect your privacy. All you have to do
is make a few smart steps. This privacy guide helps you to quickly reclaim your privacy online.
When the Clearview scandal hit the public, everyone expected that Clearview would have to answer to government officials
for this data abuse. As it turns out, the opposite is the case: Governments are too eager to use the facial recognition
software themselves. They seem to have no interest to regulate
Clearview. Now, about one year after the scandal hit the public, a German and a Canadian court decided in two separate cases
that Clearview's creation of
biometric profiles is illegal and that Clearview must delete profiles upon request. This is a
first step, but not enough to protect people's right to privacy.
On Privacy Day, European end-to-end encrypted services ProtonMail, Threema, Tresorit and Tutanota are calling on EU
policy makers to rethink proposals made in December’s Council Resolution on Encryption.
