So. Let's just put this in perspective.
Your trivial additional inconvenience running what sounds like a non-trivial geographically dispersed non-cloud-service email system warrants not calling out services with poor mail transit security. So millions of customers improved security vs you figuring out how to use LetsEncrypt. Because Google subsidizes the free service with ads.
I do not follow this logic, but what's more:
> Google wouldn't do anything actionable. They scan your email store and know not to invest. You'll never prove anything for a passive non-action like this."
Yeah well having sold a few companies to a few mega-nationals, we try to be honest and deserve the acquisition, as opposed to trying to fleece people. Lame-duck acquisitions shit on employees for investor gain, often for investment clawback and exit.
But also, if you are a paying edu or org customer, they stop scanning for and serving ads.
So forgive me if I don't feel a ton of empathy towards your strong desire to be dishonest in a hypothetical google acquisition where they hypothetically do this.
