I like lavabit, I trust them more than google, but I can't prove they
are better and they aren't better in every respect.
I need a gmail account now (because it's required for me to have access
to some Google spreadsheet), but now wants my phone number or it won't
let me create an account. Needless to say that I'm neither happy that I'm
required to use google nor that I'm required to give them my phone
number.
A lot of people do, but perhaps they do it for
mails that anyway are in
public, e.g. to correspond to mailing lists.
Anybody know of a public email provider that is better? Or more so: that can
prove they are better?
Open to suggestions :-)
