Are you really claming that there is not a single accaptable email hoster, even for money anywhere on the internet?

Even if there is no good one, there CLEAR are still many, many others that you can use.

Edit: Competiton is not defined as same service at same price. All email services compete with each other, gmail did not kill the competition or the market they just offered the best system on one price range. You are basiclly complaining that others that have diffrent privacy policy are not as good or cheap as gmail.

You offered this as a response to somebody saying that google was good for the market, but they clearly were. You get better free email in most aspects and you still have tons of other options including the old shitty free email providers.

These post feel like a bad accuse to find a reason to hate on google, or maybe im misunderstanding you.
