i love this post! Snowden said in his book: „people who say they have nothing to hide are people who would say we don’t need freedom because we don’t have an option!“

@Natanox
The reasons Tutanota give for not using PGP seem to make sense to me although I'm no expert on this. The pragmatic approach would be to use, for example, Tutanota for general use and PGP for communicating with people who know how to use it. So maybe set up a Proton mail account as well as a fall back.
@Tutanota

@MurrayWindripper I know, and that's really a good thing. However PGP keys are an established standard in encrypted mail communication and given people already have pals and institutions that work with it it makes no sense not to support it at all.

@Natanox
I would like to turn your question on its head. How does a PGP user share an encrypted e-mail with somebody who has limited technical knowledge and little understanding of encryption?
Tutanota allows their users to send an e-mail to anyone and all they need to open it is a pre-shared password and a web browser. They can even reply to it without having a Tutanota account.
@Tutanota

@MurrayWindripper @Natanox Thanks for your feedback. Yes, PGP is not the perfect solution, particularly as we also want to support Forward Secrecy. Nevertheless, we plan to add PGP support as an option for compatibility reasons in the future.
