I've heard of it over the last few years. And what they offer does intrigue me because these days you really can't have to much protection from prying eyes on the internet.

From the few times I've looked into it the pros Switzerland Base and they have the strictest Data Protection Act (DPA) and Data Protection Ordinance (DPO) the only way to get a court order is from the Cantonal Court of Geneva or the Swiss Federal Supreme Court can compel us to release the extremely limited user information we have. End-to-endncryption, they also use the highest strength 4096-bit SSL certificates

Anonymous no tracking or logging of personally identifiable information you don't even have to put valid information in to make an account.

These days most online mail services use cloud storage and those can be breached. Like last year Microsoft suffered a email breach and in 2014 apple was breach mainly female celebrities nudes were leaked online.

I have never used it, altho I have a coupla friends that uses it, and have for years...
that in-itself explains alot for me, they are pretty finicky about the tools they use.

Hmm, if there's no phone number requirement then I'll poke around with it.
I can use an e-mail service that works & doesn't need you to give a phone number like Yahoo does.

They also have a free VPN.
