    important to emphasize here that email is inherently not very private. Proton is one of the best email providers for privacy, but for things you really need to be private (eg organizing protests in less-than-friendly countries) you shouldn’t use email at all.

          Does proton do anything other than encrypting the email file? TLS should be enough to encrypt the transfer.

              Okey, that sounds super nice. I might just switch over my email as well to them, not just use them for their calendar.
