Most of us are not really worried about state-level actors reading our emails for some political purpose, and most of us don't have lives that would be of any interest to some tabloid. Most ordinary users of Fastmail would never notice any difference in their lives except for inconvenience and less features if they moved to encrypted email. If you need encryption, go for it, but for most people it just makes email worse.
How so? In what way is Fastmail's ability to read every customers emails, beneficial to the customers?
