I am transferring all of my email address; a few years back it took me months to figure out what was all going to my gmail account that was used signing up for stuff even though there was some web app I used, I was going to move away from the Google as much as possible, minus search and YouTube. Several months ago I moved away from Google search, and was stuck with YouTube as there is no real competition to it, that my favourite channels use, so I am stuck with it.

So iCloud’s hide my email was the replacement for Gmail, it was a lot easier to cancel junk mail by being able to just turn off email addresses that started spamming me. Come now to the buy Canadian stuff I am turning off all my hide my email addresses and moving some to proton pass, most of the emails so far I can just delete but many I have to go to the webpage and change the address. It is hard work and I have given myself a deadline of the end of the month when my iCloud subscription is done and dusted. Only 152 email addresses left!

I’m using proton myself and have still continued to do so after these news. I kinda disagree that the founder is necessarily in any way maga or even a republican support just because he expressed praise for republicans on one particular issue. I think that’s taking it a bit too far, unless I’ve missed something where he clearly endorses Trump or his views more broadly.

Same. Not pleased but it’s more everyday opportunistic capitalism than full-blown MAGA unhingement.
