Regarding PGP being used between 2 providers, eg Google and Proton, what prevents Google from viewing the messages client side after they’ve been decrypted?

    I don’t think that googles mail Client supports pgp. And if you use a client you trust with Google mail, the content of your mail is encrypted.

    They will still use metadata to track who you are talking to and about what. The Mail subject is metadata and therefore not encrypted.

    So to keep your conversations private, dont use gmail, and probably don’t use mail at all, use something build with encryption in mind.
