   Great user interface, and ease of use. Not sure about the privacy though.

   Very happy with its offers, it has a full suite of tools. Also the user experience is great. I am not sure about the privacy though. I am not confident enough to use it for sending and receiving confidential documents.

   🏁 Competitors: Mailfence, ProtonMail

   👍 Pros:    Huge storage space|Mobile app|Easy to use|Organisation

   👎 Cons:    Security|Privacy|Data protection and security

   Not good mail in terms of privacy and security

   I used to use Gmail until 4 months ago. I was really happy with this mail, it is easy to handle and, being a Google member, there are many tools available to use. However, I started to learn about the security and privacy offered by Google, which is NONE. We are selling our information and personal data to a technological giant and, many times, we are not even aware of it.

   This is why I deleted all but one of my Google-related accounts. As most people are still not aware of this, when working or contacting certain people for the first time, it is essential to do it through Gmail.

   Today, there are a few alternatives to solve this lack of privacy. After doing an intensive search and reading comments, I decided to get an account with Mailfence and, honestly, I'm very happy with their service. It's an easy to use email, with end-to-end encryption, digital signatures, calendar, document saving capabilities, ... I really recommend it for all those who are starting in the world of privacy and security. The best thing is that you can create a free account and, if you are happy with the service or need more storage space, you can switch to a paid account.

   I hope my opinion helps everyone, especially those who are thinking about whether it is really worth giving all our information in exchange for a free email.

  Contact your representative and two senators using Resistbot, Democracy.io, or manually. And ask other people to do so as well. Sure, it’s minuscule, but that’s the main tool we’ve got afaik. Source: 7 months ago

• Yesterday, I took some flak for posting a thread encouraging people to call and email Ohio legislators. Many said "what's the point?" This is the point. Ultimately, they work for us, whether they like it or not. Don't underestimate your voice and the power of even the smallest action.

  I discovered Resistbot a few years ago and have since contacted government representatives hundreds of times - it makes the process so easy. I do it through Facebook messenger. There's also a "trending" feature where I can see the hot topics of the day in between major events like the issue 2 votes. Source: 7 months ago

• Tell HN: Submit comments on IRS guidance to SEC 174 expenses

  There are 43 comments so far. I was expecting thousands of comments. Comments can be with your name, company name, or anonymous. There's no required info you need to give other than the comment, no account required. Submitting a comment takes 'time to write comment + 5 seconds' - it was very easy. The comments have been open for 58 days, and they close in 20 days. Side note: Which of our reps should we call about... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago
