On the off chance any of you mugs knows anything about this

I'm lookin' for alternatives to Gmail, because I'm sick of hearing about their privacy scandals, them gathering info to feed me ads I block anyway and trying to make a Google+ profile on my behalf every time I so much as scratch my ass. Dedicated to privacy, preferably based outside of the US, doesn't need to have all the fancy features but the ability to create aliases is a plus. Any ideas? Currently looking at Hushmail, but I'm open to suggestions.

 

Just use Hotmail .

 

Mhm... Uh, thanks for the suggestion? Aaaand bye.

 

Yahoo, maybe?
I've only ever used that and don't have any complaints.

And yeah, Google hard-selling you all their ****. Imagine that.

 

Just make your own, ya maroon.

 

Funny 'cause now Yahoo's doing the same thing

I've considered it, believe me

 

Just buy KHV and use an @kh-vids.net address.

 

Like? I've never gotten any advertisements that I can think of.

 

Aol ?

 

Lol

 

Lo-

damn.

problem solved

 

Buying your own mail server is probably the best way to go.
They're dirt cheap and easy to use.
If you're willing to pay, that is.
If not, maybe just use 000webhost's free domain and mail server. Not the best but I did it for like 5 months and it was ok I guess.

 

snail mail

 

I personally like AOL but that's because I've been using it since I was a really littl kid XD (who used to send herself Winx Club ecards cuz they were pretty)

 

Buy a domain and just use it for email. It's really the only thing that will cure your gmail woes, since you'll find similar troubles in any of the big email providers.

Don't use godaddy though.

 

Didn't this site use GoDaddy for awhile?

 

We definitely did when DS owned it, and considering that GoDaddy is the "cheap as ****" option on this planet I wouldn't be shocked if spdude used it too. We don't anymore.
