So bummed there’s two ladies I want to see one local and one while I’m traveling, but I don’t do web forms and their emails are both gmail. One of them is P411 gal so might try that.

Put the same info into an email if it’s encrypted?  

He did mention both of those providers have Gmail as their email, not Protonmail or comparable end to end encrypted email service.

Your most critical information, that you probably have shared with 100s of people in your life time, is already out there on the dark web. Data leaks happen all the time. How often do you turn on the news and hear about this data leak or that one compromising information of thousands of Americans.  

…I would not upload any files or photos if they request that, but if it is just a request for the basic information (name, age, etc) and the date time of service, then what is the big secret?

I’ve been around for a long time & everyone complains about something. I receive inquiries everyday, but the man who sends the contact information from my website in 1 email 📧 is getting a response.  

He's pointing this out because he prefers his information is encrypted. With forms, he doesn't feel he knows if this is happening or not, and even if it is how secure it is. And when it comes to email, he doesn't trust Gmail either. Gmail does encrpt, but it's not the strongest. Proton Mail is considered one of the most secure emails when it comes to encrpting. It's why many providers use it over gmail.

No hehits, Gmail does not have end to end encryption.

Come on Qwerty, you can do better. Where in my post did I say end to end? Now, you added more details, which could be helpful for someone trying to understand, but you could have done that without suggesting I said end to end and that I was wrong. I simply said it does encrypt and is not the strongest. Nothing in this statement is wrong. But, if you want to get to the nerdy details, it's encryption is transport-layer security which makes it harder to read in transit. And yes, this is not end to end and that is what makes it weaker.

Thanks for the thoughtful responses.

I had Protonmail (still technically do) but it was not possible to search - a hard no-go for me.  
So I switched back to Gmail and it's a million times easier to use.  

You mean the search messages function (at the top just above the Inbox that lets you enter dates, names, email addresses, subject line and if you want to enable it the actual message text is so confusing as to be unusable?

"I simply said it does encrypt and is not the strongest. Nothing in this statement is wrong"

Always good to see a fellow tech guy on here.

I hear you, and I understand the concern around data security. That said, web forms aren’t inherently insecure... it depends entirely on how the site is built, what protections are in place, and how the data is handled on the backend.  

Either you pick a profession provider, or you don’t. I do not need an encrypted email. 📧 When proton mail came out I had one long ago. I am not a high traffic provider, nor do I want to be. I don’t see everyone who inquires. I am selective on whom I share my energy with. I think some of you fellas refuse to believe providers have the freedom to pick & choose.  

Paige always posts much more eloquently than I do, but she is 100% correct. If any of the provider's requirements to book an appointment (screening, condom use, rates, etc.) you as a client do not agree with or are not comfortable with MOVE ON and find another provider. There are way more clients than providers. If some of the provider's requirements or rates are too much for you there are 10 guys behind you that are fine with it. Supply and demand.

I use WhatsApp for my boyfriend. Every person is so very different. There are lots of apps. I’m use whatever my friends prefer, and no one has asked for protonmail it’s not necessary. When protonmail came out I jumped on the bandwagon it’s not a key factor.

Nope. But neither do you it seems like :p

Protonmail historically had limitations on searching emails due to the encryption. NOW, you can search but I am not sure how deeply. But when I used it before, you could not search at all. That is why I switched back to Gmail.
