<p><font size="5">Perhaps I should have been more precise. You can
not use encryption on those documents that you want to create
and edit in a <b>web browser or mobile office apps</b>. </font></p>
<p><font size="5">If you are using Windows, Mac, or Linux, you have
the choice/option to encrypt your Office documents with
Cryptomator or Rclone. You just need to separate out the files
that you want to have accessible via web browser.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">If you are using desktop office software, not a
browser, you can encrypt whatever you wish to.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Personally, I mostly use LibreOffice, although I
do own a license for MS Office 2019. Some documents are stored
unencrypted, but those that are sensitive, like legal documents
I exchange with my attorney, are all encrypted on my OneDrive
storage.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">My LibreOffice docs, that I create on Linux, are
mostly encrypted with either Cryptomator or Rclone.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">If you are a subscriber to Microsoft 365, you are
purchasing along with the 1 terabyte of storage, a suite of
Windows software that absolutely exists on Windows, and your
files get saved via Windows File Explorer to either your local
PC, or OneDrive cloud storage. Any or all of these files can be
encrypted.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">You absolutely can, and I do, encrypt my Word
.docx files that get stored on my OneDrive cloud storage. The
part that I may not have made clear is that encrypted files can
not be accessed in a web browser and the online version of Word.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Everyone who subscribes to 365, the approximately
$100/year product from Microsoft, does NOT live ONLY in the
cloud. Everyone uses real Windows files that can be encrypted
before they get stored in the cloud. The other side of this is
that you can't use the cloud version of Word to open those
encrypted files. That is a trade-off for those who choose to
encrypt their data. </font></p>
<p><font size="5">The folks who don't pay anything, or those who pay
$20/year for basic versions of the online only office suite
can't use Cryptomator to encrypt that specific data. </font></p>
<p><font size="5">It's simply a matter of choice. I decide not to
live only in web apps that require a browser.</font></p>

<p><font size="5" style="background-color: rgb(192, 192, 192);">EMAIL
ENCRYPTION</font></p>
<p><font size="5">On occasion, many of us need to send someone a
piece even if it's small of sensitive information that you would
rather not have in a clear text email. There is a very simple
and Free Solution.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Proton offers a free tier of their email system.
I have one of their free accounts that I needed to use just
this morning. I needed to send my financial advisor my bank
account routing number and account number. The free proton
mail the feature that allows you to protect an email with a
password that you can send to anyone and they are not required
to have anything special other than their normal email. You can
include a password hint in the email or give it to the other
person some other way. My financial advisor and I have a
password that we use when we send each other information that is
secured. Occasionally I need to fill out a form using a system
called DocuSign that requires a password. I know what that
password is and my financial advisor knows what the password is
that they need to open password protected email that I send
them via proton.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">I highly recommend everyone look into a free
proton mail account.</font></p>
<p><font size="5"><br>
</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Similarly, my email, for the most part, also gets
stored in an encrypted format on my mail server. I subscribe to
a service from Proton/Simplelogin that encrypts inbound email
before it arrives on my mail server.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Mail sent to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:dking65@kingconsulting.us">dking65@kingconsulting.us</a> is not
encrypted on my server. </font></p>
<p><font size="5">Mail sent to <a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="mailto:drew@doodles.simplelogin.com">drew@doodles.simplelogin.com</a> does go
through an encryption process before email lands on the server.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Mail sent to my email alias addresses via
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://simplelogin.io/">https://simplelogin.io/</a> are all encrypted by Simplelogin before
they get delivered to me. Simplelogin has a copy of my public
PGP key that they use to encrypt my inbound email before it gets
routed to my mail server.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">If I do choose to read my email in a browser, I
must do so with a browser extension that handles the decryption
so I can read what's on the server. Otherwise, I must read my
email with Thunderbird/Betterbird email software. Betterbird
has my PGP secret key and can decrypt all the mail
automatically.</font></p>

can't stand due to recent changes. And you can't restore
the apps or your Cloud desktop to a previous condition
or settings. You can download and store local copies of
your data. Which is useless if the Cloud App goes away
or changes its formats so your old files won't work in
the app anymore. If you stop paying for the services, or
if the services go away, your data may become useless.

<p><font size="5">All the cloud providers scan your
files in detail. I was caught off guard by Pcloud
a few years ago. Pcloud is my backup cloud drive
for Google and Microsoft. The first time I copied
my data from Google to pcloud I got locked out of
my pcloud account shortly afterwards and after
contacting technical support I learned that it was
because of a violation of their terms of service!
I had a single PDF file on my Google Drive that
was a news article referencing the war in Iraq and
it specifically mentioned ISIS. It was the
content of this PDF file that Google was perfectly
fine with that caused the violation. I asked
pCloud to delete anything they felt was in
violation of their policy in exchange for letting
me back into my account, and they agreed.
Afterward I learned that it was this single file
that was the root of the problem. Pcloud, and all
others, scan all of your documents in detail.
Basically reading through them word by word and
using technology to discover what the content is
and what it references.</font></p>
<p><font size="5">Now that we have all of this AI

everything that you write and store in the cloud. </font></p>

John. What you're seeing isn't
sharing with other people (not
even Microsoft employees,
through a combination of
encryption, access controls, and
pinky swears). Microsoft would
probably tell you that what you
saw is still considered "private
to you." Instead, it's software
services built into the platform
reading the files that you
uploaded to them to deliver the
memories feature.</p>
