To put it simply, ProtonMail is an email service provider that offers more secure communication over the internet and advanced file-sharing security features that are way ahead of the market leaders. Initially, it was invitation-only but later ProtonMail opened up to the public in March 2016.
Upon the launch of its public beta on 16th May 2014 it was well received by so many that they had to suspend the beta signups until they expend the server capacity. ProtonMail is an end-to-end encrypted email service provider founded five years ago at the CERN (European Organization for Nuclear Research or in French “Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire”) by Andy Yen, Jason Stockman, and Wei Sun. Today I want to talk about a solution to all those problems. So what are you to do? What if you're working on a secret project, if you're a developer or if you want to mail sensitive information about your company? What if you just don't want advertising companies to use your private communication to analyze your life? Don't think using regular postal service is any better, your letter can be stolen literally from the moment it's out of your hands. It is well known that, when using most email providers such as Gmail and Outlook that don't have a good level of privacy, your email could easily be stolen at many points – only one of them is when your email gets sent from your device to the servers. It's 2019 and we still have that same problem protecting the safety of the messages and emails we send. Sending a letter became a threat to the messenger, so it became expensive to pay for protection and armed men to deliver the letter for you. Many messengers were known to be tortured and even killed for the information they were supposed to deliver.
It doesn't matter if you're a king who wants to recruit villagers for war or you're just a citizen that wished to inform his family that he is finally earning money to provide food for them, you will want that information to stay private. If that letter was crucial to the kingdom's survival there wasn't only the need to deliver if fast, but also to deliver it safely. Sending a letter from one part of the kingdom to the other took a long time, weeks if not months. If we skip a few thousands of years, we have huge kingdoms that cover one-fifth of the whole world. This way there was a possibility to share a piece of knowledge without the dependence on its carrier's ability to recall it. The ability to express and share obtained knowledge has lead to the elevation of the overall intelligence of primal societies.Ĭomplex communication soon led to the development of glyphs, writings, and later letters. It is one of the biggest reasons we, as a species, have been able to get this far. If you're tired of censorship, cancel culture, and the erosion of privacy and civil liberties subscribe to Reclaim The Net.Ĭommunication.
