Oh, it's bullshit made in Germany again.

>> When e-mails go unnoticed because of being redirected to a spam folder that you never check, you are in fact still legally liable for such e-mails – as you cannot disprove having knowledge of them. This is a danger that our users can safely ignore: We check for spam and viruses before the e-mails are accepted and reject anything that looks suspicious. This way, you always know exactly what e-mails you have received and read.

How does that even work when they GPG encrypt content. Are they escrowing the private keys?

what a timing of this post. Just as I was ranting about this old 30C3 talk[0] and pointing out what a scam "DE-Mail", "e-brief" and "Trusted-Cloud", etc. is, ... then this is trending on HN. Hilarious.

Please show me an e-mail SPAM / Virus that is sent GPG-encrypted to you. I do not think that this will ever happen.
