 Of course I agree with you that email is not private and awful.  Of course I agree Tor is more anonymous than a VPN..

THAT’S NOT WHAT WE ARE DEBATING.

I disagree with you that I have to accept things for the way they are.  I disagree that have to get down on my knees and obey.  It turns it into a completely involuntary interaction with Google.  This is Mullvad’s only form of contact.  And change has to start SOMEWHERE.  SOMEONE has to crack, and I pick the one who claims to be for privacy.  If we can’t get Mullvad to change, then nobody.

I agree with you that many other companies have worse privacy policies, what I’m saying is that Mullvad can be converted.  They can be changed.  Of course companies using Gmail makes the internet more centralized, how can you even debate this point?  Again, you’re saying, submit and accept the empire.  I don’t submit.  I’m not obeying.
