- Comment on Power Loss but Still Online with Fiber Connection 2 weeks ago:
Your fiber ONT box (where the fiber signal gets converted to copper ethernet) probably has a backup battery in it. This is especially useful if you have VOIP landline phone service through your fiber provider so you can call for help if necessary when the power is out. You or your provider will need to replace this battery every few years, just like with a UPS.

- Comment on US Email Providers - Other then Google, MS, Apple, ... 1 year ago:
I think you should reconsider Proton. It seems to tick all of your boxes except US-based. However, I know they have US-based VPN servers, so I expect they have US-based email servers as well. It’s worth asking their support team about.
