We've been building things together for a long time. LEGO first, then software. Across every company and project since, one thing kept showing up: database access security was broken.

AliasVault (https://aliasvault.net) is an open-source, self-hostable, end-to-end encrypted password and (email) alias manager that protects your privacy by creating alternative identities, passwords and email addresses for every website you use.

Since 2013, I've been running a public temporary email service (https://spamok.com), but I wanted to build something more privacy-centric and fully self-hostable. That's why I've…
