This is a familiar soap box for me, I have stood on it before. Far too many extensions can see and manipulate every web page. The security of browser extensions is an industry disgrace. More specifically, it is only as secure as the extensions installed in your web browser. It is only as secure as your web browser. Reading the encrypted message BIG PICTURE The option to encrypt the message, for those not in the ProtonMail club, is the lock icon at the bottom, indicated by the red arrow. In the screen shot below, someone at the website is creating a new email message. Two wrong answers are normal email and text messages as neither is the least bit secure.
A phone call, smoke signals, secure messaging software (such as Signal or Threema), an index card in their lunch box, whatever works for the sender and recipient. How the recipient gets the password is up to the sender and recipient. The kicker is that to view the web page with the message, the recipient needs to know a password. Rather than sending the actual message, ProtonMail sends the recipient a normal email message (sample below) saying they need to view a web page. The conversion between secure ProtonMail and insecure normal email is handled by a web page. Everyone should have a ProtonMail account.īut, since not everyone does, this is a cheat sheet on sending an encrypted message from ProtonMail to someone using normal standard email such as Gmail, Yahoo, Outlook, Hotmail, AOL, etc.
The encryption just happens, you don't need to do anything. We'll see.The superpower that ProtonMail brings to the table is easy, simple, no-brainer encrypted email messages between ProtonMail users. Maybe it will function better moving files and folders from my Finder Folder on my Mac. at least not for transferring photos from my iPhone. Part of my decision to upgrade my Proton Mail account was to have file storage on Proton Drive, but I don't think I can use it. Will there be any improvements so Proton Drive works on par with iCloud? If so when will that happen? Unless greatly improved and on par with iCloud, Proton Drive will not work for me. I'm am sorry to say it is falling way short. It's like taking a dirt road on a long trip instead of a highway. I don't see how I can do this with Proton Drive. I have hundreds if not thousands of photos that I would like to get into the cloud. iCloud you can move multiple files instantly. Then, with Proton Drive, moving the files into a different folder is excruciating, just one file at a time.
PD thumbnails are tiny, considerably smaller than those in iCloud. at least I haven't found the upper limit on how many pics you can upload at once. Uploading 10 pics at a time is very limited. Naturally, I am comparing my Proton Drive experience with iCloud, and PD comes up way short. Running out of storage on my iPhone, I need a repository for my pics to free up space.
