Email is inherently insecure. If you want or need secure communications, that's what software like Briar, Matrix, or Signal (yes despite some drama).

Secure emails can always be done manually with PGP and will be a lot hardier than trusting an organization that gives away subscriber payments to Western-backed coup attempts and color revolutions.

be the change you want to see. live right and be happy enough and successful doing so that people want to emulate you, be like you. teach without words. people who preach are generally the biggest hypocrites. stop telling others to do the right thing and just do the right thing yourself.
