Email encryption is more widely used than ever. But email encryption is not equal to email encryption. There are

For many email is Gmail. However, people in the UK - and everywhere else in the world - should rethink whether it is
still a safe bet to use Gmail. Now Google plans to store the

In big organizations like AT&T lots of people are responsible for many different tasks. Thus, it's normal that decisions are
made to tend to seemingly minor issues later. Yet, a minor issue to the big organization can be a real
hassle to individuals or start-ups. The AT&T and Tutanota case shows why we all need free journalism.
Tutanota has been blocked in Russia starting Friday, 14th of February. This follows the blocking of other encrypted
email services in Russia to prevent Russian citizens from using secure communication channels online.

The government of Jair Bolsonaro has filed a criminal complaint against journalist Glenn Greenwald after
he reported about corruptive activities of this same government. The accusations look like another attempt to crack down on
press freedom by authoritarian-like governments. This follows a trend that has been going on for a few years in some
democratic countries, the aim:
To stop critical reporting against the ruling class.

new feature brings amazing privacy improvements. With our encryption expertise, we have not only made sure that all data

In recent years UK, France, and Belgium have passed privacy-infringing surveillance laws to combat terrorism. Privacy
activists fear that these laws violate privacy rights of all citizens and, thus, have filed lawsuits.
The European Advocate General Campos Sánchez-Bordona has now spoken in favor of privacy rights:
the means and methods of combating terrorism must be compatible with the requirements of the rule of law and
based on the EU’s charter of fundamental rights.
Email encryption is no longer a foreign word to most Internet users. In fact, almost everyone has sent an encrypted
email in the last few years. Reasons vary, but the outcome is the same: Slowly, but steadily, email communication
