So here’s the thing.
-
@globcoco True, Infomaniak does use AI, but in a completely different way from Proton: it’s optional, hosted only in Switzerland, and not used for training. If you’d rather avoid it altogether, Tuta has publicly stated that it won’t add cloud-based AI to its email client, and as far as I know the same goes for Tuta Drive. Posteo, as far as I know, doesn’t offer any AI features either. As for cloud storage, it depends on what you need.

@globcoco I don’t use a cloud myself, as I run my own NAS at home, and even an older PC can do the job. If you’d rather use a service, Tuta Drive, Filen and Ente Photos (for photos only) are all end-to-end encrypted. Ente’s AI features run only on your device and are optional, and Filen, as far as I know, has none. Everyone’s needs are different, so it’s worth checking what suits yours.

Spoken like someone with a whole lot of time on his hands.@clacksee I have not. So far it has taken me two years to de-Google/Meta/etc. & I'm not there yet. What I'm talking about is making the decision for the process to begin. As you say, these services are deeply embedded in our lives & it's hard to untangle that mess - that makes it easy to slip into putting it off, just as long as we can find a way of telling ourselves that the water isn't hot enough yet for us to jump out of the pot. That if we wait, maybe it sorts itself out. But it won't.
