After the Proton CEO twitter scandal, I’m thinking of getting a domain that I own. But problem is, all my email address would be @mydomainname.com instead of @protonmail which millions of people use. Isn’t that just linking all your account together. Even if you create a separate email address for every account, they all still identify to your domain and the surveillance corporations can link your accounts together to your identity. So I’m not sure about having own domain name…

🤔

And its hard to even pick a name that sound good when you say it like Pro-ton-mail is easy to pronounce, I can’t think of some good domain name like that to choose.

    <anyname>@uniquename.com is, roughly, the privacy equivalent of uniquename@protonmail.com. You don’t gain any significant amount of privacy by being a uniquely-identifiable part of a large mob than in registering yourself as a small, uniquely-identified mob.
