+ | |||
+ | '''existence of "email" (as we know it) is in danger. | ||
+ | ''' | ||
+ | |||
+ | for me, email means ability to exchange messages in a decentralised / | ||
+ | federated way, made possible because operators of email servers & email | ||
+ | clients following open standards for protocols & software, that enabled | ||
+ | interoperability. there was resilience through variety of | ||
+ | implementations. plus, the spam-filtering and abuse-handling were done | ||
+ | (more-less successfully) in a participatory, communal, (dare i say) | ||
+ | "multistakolder" ways. | ||
+ | |||
+ | more on that: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-list/2023-May/002877.html | ||
+ | |||
+ | |||
+ | nowadays, there are many adversaries to this (idyllic?) situation: | ||
+ | |||
+ | * "market forces" of centralisation & monopolisation have resulted in ~90% of all email being read (!) by (clients written by) 3 big players (GAM) , and for providers it's G&M that rule 66% of that market: | ||
+ | |||
+ | https://mailchimp.com/en/resources/most-used-email-service-providers/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | https://blog.apnic.net/2023/04/05/who-reads-your-email/ | ||
+ | |||
+ | * smaller hosters & email providers are struggling to maintain their servers... | ||
+ | ** ... because google is breaking the "open standards" https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/issues/18 | ||
+ | ** ... and can get away with it, because of their monopoly position | ||
+ | |||
+ | and | ||
+ | |||
+ | * gMail can reject email being sent / received from small hosters, based on "reputation" / rate limiting / whatever http://www.igregious.com/2023/03/gmail-is-breaking-email.html | ||
+ | ** ... thus making it even harder to compete with it! | ||

+ | * M$ too: https://tuta.com/blog/outlook-falsely-marks-tutanota-emails-as-junk | ||
+ | |||

Email Problems
(July 2023: https://nettime.org/Lists-Archives/nettime-l-2307/msg00049.html)
existence of "email" (as we know it) is in danger.
for me, email means ability to exchange messages in a decentralised / federated way, made possible because operators of email servers & email clients following open standards for protocols & software, that enabled interoperability. there was resilience through variety of implementations. plus, the spam-filtering and abuse-handling were done (more-less successfully) in a participatory, communal, (dare i say) "multistakolder" ways.
more on that: https://www.ripe.net/ripe/mail/archives/ripe-list/2023-May/002877.html
nowadays, there are many adversaries to this (idyllic?) situation:
- "market forces" of centralisation & monopolisation have resulted in ~90% of all email being read (!) by (clients written by) 3 big players (GAM) , and for providers it's G&M that rule 66% of that market:
https://mailchimp.com/en/resources/most-used-email-service-providers/
https://blog.apnic.net/2023/04/05/who-reads-your-email/
- smaller hosters & email providers are struggling to maintain their servers...
- ... because google is breaking the "open standards" https://github.com/google/gmail-oauth2-tools/issues/18
- ... and can get away with it, because of their monopoly position
and
- gMail can reject email being sent / received from small hosters, based on "reputation" / rate limiting / whatever http://www.igregious.com/2023/03/gmail-is-breaking-email.html
- ... thus making it even harder to compete with it!
- UPDATE: https://blog.google/products/gmail/gmail-security-authentication-spam-protection/
- M$ too: https://tuta.com/blog/outlook-falsely-marks-tutanota-emails-as-junk
and
- there is lack of skills for hosting own mail servers, because "everyone" is outsourcing it to (GAM)...
and
- (much more)
Solutions:
- resist!
- https://multiplace.org/8m/ (Counter Cloud Action Day)
- return to self-hosting
- reward your (inner?) sys-admin!
- https://sysadminday.com (coming up soon:28. July!)
- re-learn
- re-use email for encrypted chat
- work on open standards:
&
- repair interoperability with new federated protocols (Activity Pub &
email should talk to each other)
- organise!
Centralisation
- Google enforces own rules, creating problems for other email providers:
Geoff Huston on Centralisation: https://labs.ripe.net/author/gih/on-internet-centrality-and-fragmentation/
- By relying on Google to run (part of) our email services, we are be moving away from "open, inclusive, collaborative Internet model", since Google is one of the monopolies that is threatening the original model – as described in these articles:

- The internet is both the cause and effect of geopolitics (Douzet, 2014).
○ China’s “Great Bottleneck” (Zhu et al., 2020) ○ Iran’s selective international censorship (Salmation et al., 2021) ○ Eastern Ukraine’s dependency on Russia (Limonier et al., 2021)
Surveillance
- Google email practices are: to not implement standards; to compromise privacy of users in order to sell ads; and they spy on their users & share information with governments (see: Snowden)
