Has Visible worked out the signup problems they had? I remember hearing a lot of people complain about their experience trying to sign up for Visible. A lot of them just gave up and got service elsewhere.
Re:Protonmail can delete the wrong email and nobody cares on Wednesday November 02, 2022 @11:37AM (#33437575)
It seems most of the email services that give even basic protection of one's privacy are NOT in the United States.

If anyone here is looking for a business idea, I would absolutely sign up for an email service that is based in U.S. and provides a guarantee (in writing) that it 1) doesn't track the user across the web after they sign in to email 2) doesn't scan or parse data from emails in any way 3) doesn't sell any information it obtains from me or about me to any third party 4) doesn't make any of its money at all from advertising 5) maintains high operational security standards.

Notice that I'm not even asking for end-to-end encryption like Protonmail provides. I just want something that is in my home country's legal jurisdiction (for business reasons), doesn't track me invasively nor sell my data, and is well-run.

I believe a company could make a lot of money if they communicated this offering to the public and maintained a decent brand reputation.

Thank you. I've been reading about cloudflare zero trust with some interest, but it seems like there are some shortcomings of the solution for my use-case. For example, cloudflare states they don't mask the ip you are coming from when connecting to external sites and services (unless I misunderstood somehow), which would put me in the position of having to whitelist an entire coworking space or coffee shop when I need to tell an external service how to allow my computer to connect.

Thank you. No, this is for a small business, so there aren't any enterprise equipment relationships.

Does a reputable VPN service for business use exist?

I have been traveling a lot and am looking to be able to use public wifi hotspots at hotels, coffee shops, and coworking spaces. I would use a mobile hotspot device or even my phone's hotspot feature, but the connection quality really seems hit or miss depending on location. I considered running my own VPN server, but I don't want to have to worry about misconfiguration or other security...
