| anyone in a FVEYs, or 14EYs, or 22EYs country should use Yandex mail. hosted in Moscow. FBI cant issue an NSL to read every email you sent or received to construct your patterns of life to more easily parellel construct you or blackmail/coerce you into compliance. even NSA has to tread lightly, and cant just casually feed your emails into XKEYSCORE, because if they get caught, then Yandex with the assistance of FSB will kick out NSA and/or hack back or retaliate with active measures. so NSA would only risk blowing their Yandex collection for very high National Priority targets. not you. in a sense, the smartest surveillance evasion tactic is to hide in the fog of cyber war between the Nation States. if you're not Baghdadi or Carter Page, you wont have to worry as much. plus, Yandex mail is better than gmail. Yandex is what gmail was 10 years ago--simple UI, no bloat, no ads, no spam, no BS. Yandex has a mobile email app too. better, you can host your private DNS on Yandex, then use Yandex for your private domain's emails. and unlike Google, who is probably selling your info about you from your emails to an ecosystems of ad spammers and "database of ruin" analytics spy companies, Yandex is not. thanks to US sanctions on Russia, your data is effectively siloed off from the US market. finally, consider the Shadowbroker hacker used Yandex to leak the stolen NSA EQGRP files. has the Shadowbroker been caught? nope. Yandex security looks better than anyone else's. we live in interesting times, when Russia is now a safer place to store your data than the US. the world has gone mad. |
Also, I see that they have their own browser?? https://browser.yandex.com/ I assume it's just a rebrand.
