Time to celebrate: Tutanota is now Tuta.

This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
I really wanna support these folks but I'm also curious about the recent headlines with Cameron Ortis (Canada's own selfish version of Snowden who deserves a damn Peace Prize for reals) referencing these.
Also, I think people need to learn there is nothing "private" about email beyond not scanning which is like paying for a not-service (like don't fuck me over). Hell, its hard enough to work up the courage and stamina to vanishing-messages-set someone adversarial who desperately needs you to make and ebforce that decision upon them as a baseline for engaging with them at all.
I will pay $1/month for email company to not be an asshole but that's the extent of my patience with the notion and I have zero illusions about what is likely still happening on some level.
Edit: Snowden deserves reward, not Ortis.
Edit: whats the timeline/continuity in terms of Ortis' mention and
Tutanota
rebranding toTuta
Proton is doing privacy the right way.
Proton lost me when I found out you can't receive notifications from their app on a de-googled phone. Their app requires Google services for notifications. Since then I've moved to Tuta and am very happy with the service and notifications work. I mean how hard is it to set up a new email check every half hour in the app. What's the point of private email when you have to run it on a spyware (Google) infested phone.
