How can this be free to use...

How can this be free to use? It exploded in popularity and yet they still don't seem very interested in making money from it (eg. Still no PayPal option for Nitro). There are no ads or anything. What is the deal?

Selling information.

Selling information and investor (primarily Chinese) money.

Data mining

Botnet

Selling your personal information, what you talk about, your interests.

Using a service like this is absolutely retarded.

No more retarded than Facebook or Gmail. Face it, we're all fucked.

>Facebook or Gmail
Are you implying anyone Sup Forums uses those? Fuck off back to

I don't use either of those.

Plaintext

Practically the same board at this rate. Don't lie to yourself. Most users here probably still use gmail as their main email provider.

I use it as my main bullshit address, I don't mind letting Google have access to all my delicious spam.

Botnet, use pic related instead.

OP are you retarded?

Whats a safer email provider

...

cock.li

What's interesting to me is that they have staff on their subreddit openly denying any of the sort.
I just kinda wonder if they're all lying, don't know about it, or whatever else could be going on.

Can I still use my gmail account with a different provider

Protonmail in theory

They listen, record, and sell every information you type.

real men use africamail

airmail.cc if you actually have a life

Honestly just about any of them are better. Google is one of the most notorious for this stuff. Even iCloud and (to an extent) Outlook mail are an improvement.
