Norway! Yes, sorry!
Like I said my memory is hazy with the research I did many years ago. I just remember it's not in the 9 eyes.
The last part was also important. Back then it didn't even need javascript. I think runbox6 still doesn't.
Anyway, I like them and I hope they got more users. My only concern is of them going bankrupt. But many years later they are still here.
Good to see another user. I hope there are many of us!

The cheapest option is like 20 dollars a year. I think I have the middle one. Not sure, it's been on that for years. I'm pretty sure it's the cheapest privacy oriented one. I tried several since then but I always end up back on runbox.
Server location is Sweden. Which was a major reason for me, outside of 9 eyes (I don't remember, I researched a lot before getting it but the details are forgotten).
I think they don't encrypt? Not sure. This was never that important to me. It was more about server location, privacy respecting and open source friendly.
I don't like their runbox7 though. Luckily it doesn't seem like they will ever disable runbox6. It's old school but reliable and fast. Runbox 7 is too full of feature and issues for me. You can easily toggle which email system you're seeing or loging into.
Oh yeah, and runbox6 is super user friendly. It's old style with just what you expect. Runbox 7 may be more depending on who you're asking. It's not for me, since it's too many icons and too little text.
Oh, and about trustworthy, it's more than I thought it could be. Every issue I had was quickly answered by one of the founders, who was super helpful and honest, even where it doesn't help them. When my domain expire I'm going to let them handle it. I didn't want to leave all eggs in one basket, but I even told him, they are the only company I would trust with this.
After all interactions I had wit them, they are literally the only company I trust. But that took years.
I've been using Runbox for many years and it's weird i don't see recommendations.
Blocked in Australia, which is even more expected. I'm amazed Aljazeera isn't blocked here. Or anything the us and israel doesn't like.
If you know the people in jail, maybe you could make a post about it? Though I don't know if that's invasion of privacy. But you posting about it here already kind of makes you like a celebrity to me. Stuff I read about but I would not think I would actually talk to someone who was in the news. I don't know anyone who was involved in that. I don't even think I know people who ended up in prison.
Eheheh that's a nice idea. Most places have a switch on the connection on the wall. I just turn that off if I can.
Headphones are not enough. I need to get blind. Or I should just learn to ignore it. I just can't.
You have such a positive point of view. It's interesting seeing how different people can be. I would focus obsessively on the part of that money that goes to those fossil fuel billionaires. You are focusing on the part where it goes to community programs.
Though I don't know where it goes. I just assumed it goes to them, like a big part of my taxes that also go to fund the military.
About activism, I've done a fair bit and it affected my life a lot. I'm an old pessimist guy. I just try not to help to make the problem worse now (making sure I don't fund them as much as I can). These things affect me too much. If I had to pay a fine for the activism I did in the past I could end up doing something really bad like destroying my life or someone else's. I'm a little too radical and I end up turning people away from my causes because of it. Nowadays I try (and fail) to not even talk about to people because I end up making them hate the cause.
I posted it here because I think most of the community agrees with it. Circlejerk you could say. If it was on reddit it would just lead to endless meaningless fights and abuses.
It's not activism. It just drives me crazy. I can't ignore the stuff I'm seeing and i can't concentrate on anything. If i want to promote some changes that would not be the way to do it. It's just that's it's like someone putting alcohol in my eyes. I have to turn it off or leave. When i can't i just leave.
I thought that could be him but i didn't see on wikipedia that he owns channel 9. I heard much about him but I've rarely seen his face.
I wouldn't doubt he is sad. To be that evil you have to have something wrong going on in your brain or life.
I hope it works out ok for you and others. I really admire that. Not only are you fighting for us for free but you're actually paying a massive price.
You guys are the veterans this country should have statues about. Instead we have statues of people who would shoot you.
So it's the same channel i see everywhere that makes me want to throw up. I keep changing channel in places i see that on and people change back, like in gyms. People around here actually like to feel their neurons melting. It doesn't just happen to be the default, it's what they want to see. They go after it.
I don't see much hope for this population.
And who's that guy? He looks like a sad villain. I hope he is very sad. But that might be why he does this. He wants to spread his misery.
From a capitalist/profit point of view I can see it is, but isn't it good for everyone?
Like having less cars on the streets. That's probably bad for profits, but good for everyone. Though I guess humanity is still very far from a point where people in power would be able to see it that way.
