THINK YOUR EMAIL'S PRIVATE? THINK AGAIN:

 * Andy Yen talks about our unconsciousness to the content of the emails and all the information about us that is exposed on them; where have we been, who have we known and even how do we think, the worst thing is that this information will last forever, the data will survive because we have lost control over them and also over our privacy.
 * He invites us to think about the term privacy and the little amout that we have, also tells us to think if in 20 years there will be any privacy and he show us what to do in order to stop this catastrophe.
 * Andy compares sending an email with sending a postcard because everyone can see what it says. Since the email comes out of your computer until it reaches the recipients one the email is at the disposal of internet providers, email providers and even the government.Also it mentions that large Internet companies (Yahoo, Facebook, Google ..) need our information to know what we like and thus capture our attention andthe only way they've got to get it is by invading our privacy.


 * Himself and other scientists friends of him created on summer PROTONMAIL ,this began in the CERN's canteen and ended up giving a solution to the problem of privacy in emails; to create an account on ProtonMail which is exactly like the email, but in ProtonMail your information is secure, this is one of the thousands of movements that seek to protect Internet privacy, but this is only possible with everyone's help because, as Andy Yen said; "PRIVACY DEPENDS IN EACH ONE OF US".
