"Mom, I don't get the point of your FIPS Mail. GPG encrypts email just fine."
True. GPG encrypts what you say.
FIPS Mail secures that you said it — and to whom.
No central mail server. No single company that can be hacked, subpoenaed, or shut down.
I'm not paranoid.
I'm just done relying on someone else's infrastructure for things that matter.
GPG hides the letter.
FIPS Mail hides the letter and the mailbox.
Still learning. Still experimental. Still better.
Build it before you need it.
