    How would you even solve porting without breaking legacy systems? You can point the MX records to another provider's server (or your own), but porting single email addresses won't …

    I'd wager their impact will be less than that of climage change if we look a few hundred years into the future. Regardless, both those disasters were more or less man-made. Chernob…
