The UK's Investigatory Powers Act has way too much power. By forcing Apple to remove its encryption for UK users, it threatens the #privacy of everyone.
We at Tuta would never build a backdoor - and our #opensource code is proof of that.
@Seldon This is not planned right now. No one could proof that the open sourced code would actually be running when you access Tuta... Nevertheless, we plan to enable you to self-host Tuta Mail, and for this, open sourcing the server code will make sense. This will be a small server, which can run locally.
Note,, all the encryption takes place locally on your device (end-to-end encryption) so our servers don't see your encrypted emails and can't read your data.
@Tutanota
This! Please release a self hostable version of your server code. This would be a massive win for the #selfhosted community.
