I think it's incredibly important that people know, with absolute certainty, whether or not the new Mozilla/Firefox privacy policy in any way applies to / covers such a service.

I'm not saying I know the answer- What I'm saying without a concrete, permanently applied answer it's not even considerable.

    There is no email service that exists without a terms of use and privacy policy. I still feel everyone overreacted about Firefox. It's funnier how many people said they switched to Brave because of it and all the super shady stuff Brave has done.

    Being angry at the Mozilla foundation for those changes is understandable. Switching to Brave because of it is plain stupid.

    Firefox/Mozilla operated without any of the new additions for nearly the entire history of the internet until this year. If anything, "over"-reacting to the new policies was too weak a reaction. You do you and all, but I'll agree to very strongly disagree.

    You can't know that with absolute certainty. Sorry, but if you're using someone elses server for your communications and they're not end to end encrypted, you should just assume that they can and do read your emails, and act accordingly.

    What is it that you're concerned about? Assume that I have no idea what either the new or old Mozilla privacy policy is, please. I tend to assume that all such are a pack of lies and everything is spying on me.
