Lol I'm sorry but "fast" doesn't seem very reasonable for any IM based
on email. Also seems to me like it's not very secure or private to do
IM over email, considering that email is probably one of the most surveilled
communications systems on the planet beyond maybe SMS.
Then as I said, it is encrypted e2e so they can check what they want,
they
can't read anything!
ah yes, the dilemma with a trusted or semi-trusted system. what happens
when that trust is lost? this is why trustless systems should be
preferred. you'll notice while the benevolence of your trusted provider
pleases you now, this may or may not remain to be true in the future!
also, remeber that while one (mail) provider may respect your privacy,
another may not. so any emails you send to not-so-much privacy
respecting providers are compromised.
they say: "if you have nothing to hide, then what's the problem?!"
which to that note, someone clever responds: "that's like saying who
cares about the right to freedom of speech if you've got nothing to
say!?"
