      If the feds are running the show, then by requiring a personal login for every user, they know all the activities (downloads, uploads, browsing habits, even IP) of that person.

        It doesn't seem like much more exposure than just an email address based account. Tutanota lets you create one naked with no phone etc like most emails try to crowbar out of you

          Yes, and LibGen doesn’t require any email at all.

          ZLib used to be my go to. It has a lot more books and is a lot easier to browse. I just don’t personally trust them anymore.

            I mean it's not even like a dark market where people lose their escrow or feds could get convictions, or a piracy site which could also hand in ips for potential unmasking if you're super paranoid thru compromised vpns (protonvpn/mail worked with french cops for instance), they get a list of people who downloaded domenico losurdo books ???? that's the payoff

            You're protected from them if the vpn + tutanota thing is secure anyways is my point

              Mullvad stays winning.

                  Yeah. Recently the Swedish police got a search warrant for their offices and had to go back empty handed because Mullvad had no data for them to take.

                    yeah I know, I thought we were being paranoid? info can be diverted and decrypted, we're trusting that closed source privacy companies are telling the truth about their encryption not being backdoored.

                    anyways, if you trust mullvad, they can protect you from the singlelogin sites in combo with tutanota. just sign up for the tutanota email on mullvad you paid for in cash. now nobody will know what's on the reading list you NEGLECT ☺️
