It is technically impossible to end-to-end encrypt email.
Not technically. You'd just have to apply encryption at a higher level Send email bodies encrypted to base64 along with a public key fingerprint, then receiver's client would decrypt if it had the private key for that fingerprint But this isn't compelling enough to get a network effect to topple in-browser gmail

The fact that multiple people very close to Trump (Manafort, Stone, Gates, Flynn), both personally and operational, met with Russian intelligence agents and assets helps the argument that the DOJ should be looking into Trump himself.
>the DOJ should be looking into Trump himself. Anyone still trying to stir up this nonsense partisan battle is just distracting from the recent major world events.
Being lost in the moment of a blizzard of “crises” that really aren’t is intellectually paralyzing. Probably intentionally so.

> And whatever happened to Apple who refused to work with FBI on the San Bernardino shooter but here is only happy to comply in a much less interesting case? Nothing. It's just a matter of technical means. They had no means of unlocking that phone without potentially compromising all the rest of the phones they've made before that point. But Apple account / emails are "in the cloud", so Apple has full access to it.
Apple has always bragged about iMessage content being end-to-end encrypted, and thus inaccessible even to Apple. Why aren't they doing the same with email and other files, like other providers? (ProtonMail, to name one example)
Majority of iPhone users have backup enabled so Apple can certainly access most iMessages.

Regarding: The US Constitution only applies to American citizens. False. In U.S. v. Wong Kim Ark, an 1898 decision, the Supreme Court ruled that the term “person” under the Fifth Amendment applied to aliens living in the U.S. In Fong Yue Ting v. U.S.,the court held that Chinese laborers, “like all other aliens residing in the United States,” are entitled to protection of the laws. "There's no dispute at the absolute…
Ok, then: the US constitution only applies on US soil.

I hope she will be OK, Kazakhstan isn't safe to hide from the US and made deals to resettle[1][2] former gitmo inmates now under surveillance 24/7 (payrolled by the US). If the charges are spun as working with Russian intelligence to “steal U.S. military secrets...” she will remain vulnerable. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotfi_Bin_Ali#Transfer_to_Kaza...

Why would you use Apple software/services for anything like this? You know it's backdoored.
> According to the Sci-Hub founder, the Gmail account associated with her Apple account (and from where she received the email) was registered by her a “long time ago” when she “was at school perhaps.” However, a cursory Google search reveals that the address is public knowledge and has been associated with Elbakyan for many years, so it’s not beyond the realm of possibility that someone is having ‘fun’ at her expense.
Oh boy, that ever useful boogeyman >“In December 2019, the Washington Post reported that Elbakyan was being investigated by the US Justice Department on suspicion that she “may” be working with Russian intelligence to “steal U.S. military secrets...” When you start trotting that out, you know it’s a witch-hunt because if they had real reasons they’d have stated them, since they don’t they offer vague insinuations cou…
If the FBI can use the Russia thing on a presidential candidate, they can use it on anybody.

Not just a presidential candidate, but a president. Did you know that after all those years of investigations, all those years of the house intelligence committee chairman and others insisting that there was "ample evidence" that Trump colluded with Putin to hack the election... in the end, The Mueller report admitted that no evidence was ever found to substantiate Trump or his associates or campaign ever working wit…
But the Mueller team was good at covering their own ass. At Least 27 Phones from Special Counsel’s Office Were Wiped before DOJ Inspector General Could Review Them https://news.yahoo.com/least-27-phones-special-counsel-21293...

This could work on top of GMail, with the help of a browser plugin.

Yes, remember that presidential candidate Bernie Sanders also got smeared with Russian interference, so it is not something only used on Trump or Trump supporters. In my country, Sweden, alleging connections to Russia or Putin is often used in the political discourse to silence individuals or groups, without any sort of proof. It has happened both on the right and the left. We have to remember that many journalists i…
Did FBI investigate Bernie Sanders and his associates?
