Comments on: Blissful Ignorance http://www.gauweiler.net/2009/01/blissful-ignorance/ None for sale, but I'll throw in some random thoughts for free, Monday to Friday Fri, 12 Mar 2010 10:55:16 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: w7 http://www.gauweiler.net/2009/01/blissful-ignorance/comment-page-1/#comment-1085 w7 Sat, 17 Jan 2009 09:14:33 +0000 http://www.gauweiler.net/?p=878#comment-1085 Personally, I wouldn't pay a penny for such a service. My points were not meant to stear paranoia. The issue is that too many people just don't care, and the government can issue a lot of questionable laws under the catch-all umbrella excuse of anti-terrorism. The methods and measures we see introduced that way are bordering totalitarianism. I'd be more worried, however, if I stored my (perfectly legal and totally benign, but sometimes very personal) email and other data with a small and unreputed service provider in Panama. Also, the second law of fiscal dynamics holds: if it is that cheap, it can't be that good. But that's just me. Personally, I wouldn’t pay a penny for such a service.

I thought I would volunteer an example of a secure email service: "Sub Rosa" from novo-ordo.com. All links are encrypted, they encourage GPG message encryption, the disks that store email are encrypted, and, to keep out the worst offenders, the server is located in Panama. I believe the service costs about $16/year. They also have information about other service providers on their website. It is all true.
