@jlou @privacy No OS is fully secure. Windows and MacOS also have several security holes. It's also a common misconception among people that MacOS is so secure and perfect but it's not.

@nihilistic_capybara @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn I think each email and cloud providers can do that. When you use any of those you have to trust them with your data. If you're concerned about that, the only solution is self-hosting. Proton Mail is still the best option for those who can't self-host.

@nihilistic_capybara @fedora @keepassxc @librewolf @libreoffice @protonmail @protonvpn I just heard about a case when they handed over a criminal's data to the Swiss government (but they state that in their privacy policy that they must obey the law)

@starlord117 @altair222 I think self-hosting your mail is the only great solution for extreme threat models

@AnonymousEntity @altair222 I would recommend custom roms instead of regular Android for real privacy. Android's new "Privacy" Sandbox is a scam.
And using Signal with VOIP if they must

@altair222 yeah self-hosting is maybe the best of they have that option
