Deliverability is a constant challenge for us to improve on. We have rate limits that do try to protect email deliverability. Things should be good today but it will always be something to watch.

See below, Lavabit not a good comparison as it was not end-to-end encrypted. Also read https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2013/11/op-ed...

We do it in a fairly straightforward manner right now. Check out the blog I linked to above - generate an in-memory index, end-to-end encrypt it, and store it browser storage. It's only decrypted in memory.

It would be far more illogical to warp Matrix into an end-to-end encrypted calendar, note-taking product, file storage product, and email platform.

Done completely client side. We actually have multiple blogs on this - https://skiff.com/blog/private-search

We might! We actually have a collaborative, e2ee editor (skiff.com/pages)
amilich··on Skiff – Privacy-first end-to-end encrypted email
I definitely agree, we are considering what to do here. I think there is a lot to improve with PGP (https://latacora.micro.blog/2019/07/16/the-pgp-problem.html), but I agree with the problem.

Right now, you can use Skiff Pages for this. You can share public links that have E2EE using link fragments, add passwords, and collaborate in real-time.

amilich··on Following pushback, Zoom says it won't use customer data to train AI models
The original thinking was generative. That is a good distinction to add. I do think regression/analysis doesn't have many of the same issues, ex. no one would have an issue if Zoom said "we're going to analyze how many minutes users spend on Zoom by time of day"
amilich··on Following pushback, Zoom says it won't use customer data to train AI models
Have been working on a list of AI companies that train on user data: https://github.com/skiff-org/skiff-org.github.io/blob/main/b.... Will update the Zoom section but still suspect.
