Mostly yes, but there are some closed source services which are still good options for this specific threat model.

And I just thought the clear explanation of the why combined with the list, makes this an excellent blog to send to people who don’t get it yet.

The list itself is something most of the people in this community know already, but you might want to send this when someone asks “why?”

Yeah, I think the title is just bait to get more clicks. Leveraging legitimate fear for what Trump’s administration is doing to garner more clicks is pretty scummy.

It’s also ironic that the premise they are playing on to write this article is anti-trump, but then they go on to list Protonmail even though the CEO has been kicking Trump’s boots.

Edit - Oh, look at that… a referral link to Proton.

They also use GoDaddy for their domain registrar. No one who runs a website and uses GoDaddy should be trusted to provide any reliable advice on anything tech related.

Okay. What the fuck?

*Again - no affiliate links. You can count on that, for every post on this blog. I don’t profit from you as a reader in any way beyond your direct support, if you so choose.

Then what the fuck is this?

Edit again - Apparently their site is a Ghost blog, which has a feature that adds that referral parameter automatically. It’s called “outbound link tagging”. At least it was not intentional, but it does show more evidence that this person should not be relied on for good information.

Are you saying that Trump has no interest in changing our cyber security stance to favor Russia? Or that he’s powerless to do so?

For anyone wondering what “TDS” means:

Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) is a pejorative term, used to describe criticism of or negative reactions to President Donald Trump that are perceived to be irrational and to have little regard for Trump’s actual policy positions.[1] The term has mainly been used by Trump supporters to discredit criticism of him, as a way of reframing the discussion by suggesting that his opponents are incapable of accurately perceiving the world.[2][3] Some journalists have used the term to call for restraint when judging Trump’s statements and actions.[4][5][6]

Despite the usage of the term syndrome suggesting a medical condition, TDS is not an official medical diagnosis.[7] A 2021 research study found no evidence to support the existence of TDS among Trump detractors on the left, but instead found bias among his supporters.[8
