    New Privacy email accounts by Startpage

    It is well know that accounts such as google and hotmail for example can read your messages if they wish to do so. And often they do. If you want total privacy startmail are in the process of offering free accounts.

    It is in Beta test mode but you can sign up to be one of the first. It's free!

    You bullied, you laughed, you lied, you lost!

    Problem I have with these "private mail" firms, JJ, is a nagging feeling that they are set up by the same group of people who wish to go through your mail anyway.

    You can also use Startpage as your search engine. They use Google but do so on your behalf so none of your search requests can be associated back to you unlike if you use Google.
    The woman behind it or associated with it is very big in the USA as being very anti tracking and pro privacy. She has been campaigning against RFID chips for ages and has highlighted how shopping loyalty cards are used against people.
    Treat everyone as a complete and utter idiot and you can only ever be pleasantly surprised !

    That must make her the devil then. Boycott her! Ban free speech. Silence those who dare to shine a light on what others with power are doing with it.

    Oh no, she's perfectly entitled to go live on air and make a tit of herself by agreeing with that headcase.

    It really makes her look good when she's on between Jones and David Icke talking about politicians shapeshifting into lizard men.

    You have a nasty, suspicious mind, pseudo.

    That's exactly what I thought.
