And even when you do all that, and you take the precaution of using a small commercial ad free no frills iMap mail server you can still end up as collateral damage. It happens when the big boys in the Valley call in favours and ask the TPTB to shut down this cheeky upstart service that expects people to pay for what they offer for 'free'.
The TPTB say what, we can't have that - free enterprise, people making their own decisions, people refusing to conform to the norm - that might bring about a civilisation that will see through our deception. This is the USA don't they know that. Eric get the Bolshevik Bullshit Commissariat and their mates to cook up some cock-'n-bull story about Snowden; like they did about ripping babies from humidicribs back in '91, and how the gooks sank our ships in Tonkin, and call Rupe and get him to make a movie about it.
Oh, and send the cyber-drones down to Texas and get them to take out those no frills mail servers, we can't have 410,000 citizens upsetting Mark, Brin and co - we're gunna need their support come next years mid-terms.
EDIT : For those who missed the humour in ApK's post, the Internet started out as DARPAnet, who's DARPA then ? The US
Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency - I'd call that a government body, AFAIK Gore never worked for DARPA nor on any project it funded, not sure about TBL.
