This guy can be pretty harsh at times, but he's clearly very knowledgeable..

However, not all providers have a recent review, and his priorities are skewed heavily to the "paranoid" side of the tech world. For example, he considers being able to mail cash to a provider a significant pro. The overwhelming majority of users aren't mailing cash to pay for their email.

Overall, it's good info that's worth sharing.

Yeah, I switched to Posteo mainly so all of my emails aren't scanned by an advertising company.

The main thing I dislike about the encrypted email providers is that I can't use my own client, I'm stuck with whatever features they want to give me.
