Given that, until now we received none that, to my knowledge, have to be
kept private, I wonder if we should find another way, in case, one day,
someone needs to write a private mail. In that case GPG on private or
public address might work. Not everybody succeed at using gpg though.

I've CC-ed the mailing list. We also do have forums.

The mailing list might know better about Verizon.

Note that non-free software can usually be found in unexpected places,
such as the BIOS/UEFI, bootloaders and so on.
