Does anybody know a good alternative for Lavabit?
I'd like a free (or cheap Bitcoin-paid
![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)
) e-mail service which is
* reliable (running for at least a couple of years with very little downtime)
* has reasonable support
* is dedicated to privacy
* has no ties to the United States
* is preferably operated by people who are part of geek / free software / crypto culture
* has preferably only a low level of advertisement annoyance
I don't think there is one. Use PGP, so you don't have to worry about this kind of things.
https://prism-break.org/ is a good site to look for privacy related stuff, btw.
