Makes me nervous to ever sign up for any sort of bitcoin mailing list ever again. I do a pretty good job of using a spam email for most things online but it's still worrying.

Time to increase our infosec even more.

if you do just use anonaddy or simplelogin as mail remailing proxies

It seems like bitcoin companies using 3rd party tools are getting well targetted, first it was the shopify leak with ledger then the hubspot leak which hit several companies and now this one, these companies need to learn to self host or at least remove their lists from 3rd party services and only upload to send.

Yes its a pain, but clearly worth it to protect against issues like this

Well, I'm completely scared out of using one these email marketing systems now.

Yeah, self-hosting just seems smarter and smarter.

Helping people to use hard-to-link-to-physical-identity emails is better solution I think.

Self-hosted mailing system won't be any more secure than mailchimp, just smaller target.

I'm not against self-hosting. Big believer, especially for sovereignty reasons, but not security.

In this case self-hosting is most definitely more secure. You won't get rekt by insiders leaking email lists if you're the only one that has access to it.

just write blog posts. email marketing is more of a reputation risk for btc companies due to customer lists

I won't be using an email marketing service either way. I was only looking into it because some users want a weekly email recapping all the top posts of the week.
