Proton Mail overview

What is Proton Mail?

ProtonMail is a web-based email management platform that helps businesses securely transmit encrypted emails between users both inside and outside of the organisation.

ProtonMail allows users to create accounts with automatic PGP key creation and management. It stores the messages in an encrypted format, eliminating the risk of message interception. The Android and iOS mobile applications also offer a variety of other features such as customizable swipe gestures and the capability to send expiring emails.

Users can set timers for messages to self-destruct after they are sent. It also sends push notifications for new emails and organizes them using labels.

Great product for using this service in full security.

i tried to use both proton vpn and tor broweser together but speed just goes down very quickly and most of your pages take way to much time just to load or tor browser is already very secure
