To be fair the employee at Microsoft was giving out at that time secret information. In no way was such an act ok. Really only reason you would do this is if it-s a American rights violating act or policy that will cause harm to people. I do however disagree that non investigation cases that any of the mail is actively read by companies. Now I-m a case of AI screening for say terrorist subjects it-s a gray area. As long as nobody sees any of those emails unless that one email is flagged for questioning. I-m not say one is flagged thus allowing full five into all email. Clear lines must be drawn, however if your up to no good releasing secret company products data or otherwise not your to pass around. At this pint your breaking the law.

I used to use gmail but have now switched to ProtonMail. I still get my gmail messages forwarded to my ProtonMail address as I haven-t transferred everything to the new address yet. There are a few frustrating things with ProtonMail like the mobile app is not the best (can-t filter by unread emails, emails in the same conversation show up separately, opening links in safari instead of the in-app browser etc) and not being able to set it up to send emails from other accounts (I use this for my university and work accounts) but to me it-s worth the sacrifice.

The Internet is the tool box of the Orwellian Thougjt Police. Even if I setup a new -secure- email account in Switzerland, the traffic still routes through dozens of Servers, any of which can perform redirects to a NSA server.
IMO, either stop using email, or get thousands or millions of people to add every possible flagged word or phrase to their email signature.

It is so fxxking convenient to use all mega free services with shine and glamour around it, yet it is our duty to resist such practisies, not only in US, but all over the world. God help us all. When today they read our emails, what it will be tomorrow? Executions based upon twitter posts? Think about it today rather then react tomorrow in a hurry.

All that good and I strongly support idea of privacy.
No one should read your email, except designated recipients.
However until most of your recipients switch to ProtonMail or similar, your efforts almost lost. Because you still send emails to gmail, yahoo, etc. thus big companies read the email not on your side, but on recipients side.

I just remember the subject of what someone else said:
Properly implemented good crypto systems work, but endpoint security is usually the weak link and can typically be compromised.
Your encrypted email might be computationally secure, but what does it matter if someone gets a keylogger on your system or can take screenshots.

I had a friend who didn't want to go full encryption with me. She stopped talking to me a while later over an imaginary interest payment she intended to collect due on a debt I paid for accidentally scratching her car with a metal box while volunteering to help her. Was she really a friend?

If I was NSA, I'd invest a billion or two set up paid and free VPN services, to give illusion of choice and make some of the -underground- -real- -private- services seem more legitimate than others. Then route them all through my end point gateway lol. Just saying.

So, I don't really understand why companies would let employees read emails? What added benefit does it have? It sounds like a very expensive thing to do when an algorithm can easily put you in a consumer category or any other kind of category much much faster.

Privacy doesn't matter. It's a illusion just as most things in life.
Don't worry about people watching your mail. You're not important enough to be worth the work from the respective companies or the government
