Journalists, activists and even lawyers on the side of activists should always use something like Tails. No matter what companies like Proton promise or what the law in the country they operate in says.
I unironically said this in my group chat, "proton mail is becoming more and more sketchy as being a privacy focused mail service" just like how signal is becoming more sketchy as a instant message service. There are things proton mail does such as logging activity that shouldn't be the case as a paying customer, and yet here we are. When I request privacy I want it to be private, as in don't give my data to anyone. it seems for that to happen it must be community driven and decentralized.
Email has been a decentralized federated system from the start, though I'm not aware of any community I'd trust to be a more privacy-respecting host than the available commercial offerings.
Yea I'm trying out tuta it supposidly is end to end encrypted. My hope is that I'll take a look at it, and see if I like it. It does have RSA encryption so from my preliminary testing it is believable.
