It's really disappointing to see this comment second on a page despite the fact that yet again... the law has no impact on Fastmail and never has. This is the unfortunate impact of FUD, where clueless comments will carry forward wrong views for years, even in the face of overwhelming truth around it.
Fastmail is not an end-to-end encrypted service. There is no requirement to backdoor it, like nearly every other non-E2E service, the Australian government can just... send a legal request. Like they always could. Or like they can do with nearly every other email service.
