In an unexpected mask off “secure” email and VPN provider Proton took the stance of siding with the fascist MAGA Reps. Proton’s services are no option for me and many others any longer. Let’s collect and discuss alternatives (E2E encrypted email and VPN) here 🔐👇

Always try to provide:

-Server location (jurisdiction)

-Governance

-Integrity/trustworthiness/transparency

-User experience/ease of use (grade 1 to 10, lets take Proton as a benchmark with an 8)

-Pricing and links

If you know alternative setups, feel free to share, too.

    My personal recommendations:

    https://uberspace.de/

    • Server location (jurisdiction): Germany
    • Integrity/trustworthiness/transparency: About-Page
    • User experience/ease of use (grade 1 to 10, lets take Proton as a benchmark with an 8): 6
    • Pricing: Based on solidarity, but recommend minimum is 5 € per month

    https://www.hostsharing.net/

    • Server location (jurisdiction): Germany
    • Integrity/trustworthiness/transparency: well, you own part of hostsharing if you use it (collective-ownership)
    • User experience/ease of use (grade 1 to 10, lets take Proton as a benchmark with an 8): 6
    • Pricing: 64 € onetime payment + 10 € per month (cooperative)
