In response to this post

Off the top of my head I can think of one alternative if metadata confidentiality or anonymity matter:

Bitmessage: https://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage

Bitmessage hides non-content metadata and uses a flood mixnet to unlink sender and receiver from eavesdropper view.

There is no alternative for email. Email clients support PGP and that's it. PGP does guarantee authenticity of a message due to digital signatures. PGP does not hide metadata about sender and receiver.

If you want truly confidential communication you have to set up a private pipeline. If you are using a public paid or free email service, you have zero confidentiality. Even if your message is encrypted, the email operators know who you are talking to.

A bit about the Internet Society:
1️⃣ We work to grow and strengthen the Internet while empowering people to take action.
2️⃣ We think the Internet should be open, globally connected, secure, and trustworthy—and we must defend it to keep it this way.
3️⃣ We believe that the Internet is for everyone
