Using “encrypted email” services is pointless. 99/100 times the email arrives unencrypted and is “trustfully” encrypted by the provider. The other 1/100 is far from private since all meta data exists. Further, 1 key leak and all previous messages will be decrypted.
The current implementation is about as secure as envelope mail (e.g. do you trust someone won’t open your letter?)
Edit: Downvoting any comment is fine, but what part of this comment was downvoted? If you can’t speak as to why you did then we all know it was someone who is negatively affected by truth. Speak up if this is not the case! :). Public discourse is a good thing - especially on HN!
