Using PGP With Proton

from Naomi Brockwell on Odysee · host Naomi Brockwell

Email is closer to a digital postcard than a sealed letter, and mainstream providers like Gmail read and analyze everything that's inside. Unfortunately, email isn’t going anywhere in our society because it’s baked into how the digital world communicates; but luckily there are ways to make your emails more private. One tool that you can use is called PGP. In this video, I'll explain what PGP is, and show you how providers like Protonmail make it super easy to encrypt the contents of every email you send.00:00 Email Was Never Built for Privacy00:50 What is PGP02:17 How PGP Works06:43 Proton Tutorial07:03 In-Network Emails07:42 Out-of-Network Password Protected Emails09:00 Out-of-Network PGP Protected Emails10:37 Importing PGP Keys11:49 Exporting and Sharing PGP Keys12:35 How to Share Your Public Key14:56 Phil Zimmerman and The Ludlow InstitutePhil Zimmerman said in his original PGP user guide text “Why I Wrote PGP” in 1991 that: “PGP empowers people to take their privacy into their own hands. There has been a growing social need for it". That statement remains even more resounding today. The builders of privacy tools risk a lot in order to create the tools that protect us all. It's up to us to use them.
