Title: Secure Encrypted Emails
Post by: JohnyMac on January 09, 2021, 08:59:42 AM
Since President Trump has been banned from social media 'they' are coming after the Deplorables. Pretty soon they will be coming after the likes of UnchainedPreppers too; consequently, it is time to sign up for a encrypted email account.

There are two private email providers that I use - Tutanota.com and Protonmail.com.

I am sure there are others however, I have been very happy with the quality of encryption form these two companies. If you do use another encrypted email provider share it on this thread.

Nemo_Va at that proton mail thing.  Someone send me a secret note so I can try to figure it all out.

I think that may be too little and too late.

Unless your last name is clinton and you have access to

A) Hammer to destroy all currently used devices
B) Bleach program to destroy all other info
C) Ability to kill anyone who threatens you and make it look like a suicide

I don't trust ANYTHING on the internet to be secure in any way. Picture this: "Hey! Sign up here for secure encrypted email service", said the Federal Alphabet agency. I personally think that using a plain language, out in the open, backwards code would probably work better. For instance: Meet me at Midnight at the North end of Broad Street. I'll be in the White car. That would actually mean: Meet me at Noon at the South end of Broad Street. I'll be in the Black car. That way they'll be there 12 hours early, at the wrong end of town, looking for the wrong color car.

OK. Do you need me to give you my address or did you get it from QRZ website? BTW, I hooked up the IC 7300 today and tried it out. Damn! That thing is complicated. I've figured out about 1/2 the stuff that I need to know to get the most out of it. I'm not real tickled with the built in antenna tuner. My outboard LDG tuner kicks the ICOM's ass. I might have to hook up the LDG because the ICOM tuner won't tune a lot of the bands. Fortunately there is a plug on the back for an outboard tuner.
