For my hobby email, I use a gmail address.  I just got an email from Google+ asking me if I knew three people and would I want to join their circles?

They know too much about us already.

But what email services do you use?  If they are free, they have to make money selling your information.

and our loosing our 4th Amendment Rights too privacy by the hour.

Still waiting TER's February Stalker of the Month

But a lot of other agencies with initials knowing the same does bother me.  Have to find a new email provider, but the NSA has pretty well insured that no US email provider is secure and no US commercial encryption system is secure, either.

I sure don't

I'm sure he'll see it a tad differently.

...gmail down and I don't use it for hobby.

Wait that's a government agency too.  

Cyber Bully showing me his brotherly love once again.

Still waiting for that PM :

You know I'm right.  You're just not man enough to admit it.

Need I put your proposal back up again?  I'm sure that even you can remember what you posted just an hour or two ago.

you sign-in at least every 2 or 3 weeks to keep it active. It is Canada based and I hope this helps.  

Sign into your account
Go to Settings  (Wheel on the upper right hand corner)
Go to Accounts tab
Go to Other Google Settings
Go to Data Tools
Click on Delete Account and Data….then take it from there

Hushmail is based in Canada, and email is encrypted between other Hushmail users.  

I've spent minutes looking before, only to be left in frustration.

Assuming that there isn't a gymnasium sized workspace somewhere where a few hundred hardworking fools pore over each and every email account on the Internet... A safe assumption...

all that would depend on who you are, and why they are looking at you.

A politician can be seriously hurt by spending time in the company of an escort. Especially while in office. Or prior to an election.

Some of us don't want facebook-like social tracking features in our hobby email account.

By doing one or all of the following:

I don't always view the world through my eyes alone.

That's very wise. I get the point.

5) Make a new gmail account for each encounter and then delete the old after every encounter lol

Would any of that do the trick?  

...were I with NSA of whoever... I'd know who's on gmail and who's ditching it. Who's encrypting-- and if they're doing that, I'd think, they GOTTA have something to hide. I'd want to hack into husmail, and I'd get a lot of other crazy ideas, all based on what you've revealed about yourselves thus far.

I do all of the above. It's really not that much trouble. Just a little bit of effort...I mean, how long does it take to open a browser? My VPN is just another browser. I'm using it for this. I have facebook on another browser. My personal emails/all other browsing on a third browser. Before I logged into Facebook, I cleared everything.

That will create a temporary 'burn' email that destroys itself after a period of time. It's actually supposed to be used for signing up for sites....so that they don't spam the sh** out of you. Never used it, tho.

stop complaining about it.

That’s the only mail I use for hobby.

Google+ is an opt in service so opt the fuck out. If you are apple and Safari user, there is browser plug in for securely browsing and sending emails, etc. There may be one Firefox.  

ry countermail, protects against a lot, pay, but very secure.  
Also, neomailbox.  

know this: NSA can likely get to any data not encrypted, and can also crack/decrypt most of it.  Good luck trying to go around or outsmart those folks, not going to happen IMO.  you should be worrying about FBI, etc.

Not to pick on you Court, but that email still resides on googles' servers.  And its backed up.  They can likely "undelete" your account if LE requests it.

It's a fascinating description of how Google (and other services) are integrating all of our technology to predict who and what we may want, and when.  It's truly eye-opening.

You obviously have no idea what you're talking about regarding Gmail.  Social features have only recently come into place

They are in the biz to sell your info. Pay for email preferably from an European company

No hushmail! They allowed US Authorities to snoop into their emails

Okay, we hate hypotheticals so bear with this.

I know a provider who switched everything from Google to Mycolab.com. They have mail servers in Switzerland, but they charge a monthly fee.

So have I, but my hobby email inbox received an email from Google+ asking me if I wanted to join the "friend circles" of three providers.  Google is tracking who emails who and using pattern analysis to try to get Google+ up to something like Facebook.
Since I use that email only for the hobby, it makes sense that they would see that I was in contact with the three ladies, but it's not much of a stretch for someone to get busted somewhere, then LE to subpoena the email linkages and expose a whole network of providers and clients.  Hacking TER for everyone's information and following that might almost be better, but not sure they could admit the evidence in court.  Next on the six o'clock news!

Although the proxy server comes closest.  Both client and provider would have to always use the proxy server, or the To: and From: get linked.  Big data and Patriot Act means no privacy online or on phones.

Do you have a link?

Just google/facebook data culling.
