Updating email description #21

Closed mitar closed 5 years ago

clehner commented 7 years ago

I'm not sure if this captures the previous points about the dependence on servers in the federated model of email, and the burden of having to run servers. But I don't necessarily have anything better to suggest. The arguments added are about security and privacy, while the article is about "avoiding centralization and singletons." The newer text points out the actual centralization that happened with email, while the older text was about the conceptual centralization of it; maybe the concreteness is more useful. Anyone else have thoughts on this?
