I am not saying that PinkMeth is squeaky clean. It is a controversial service. 
However, it isn't any worse compared to other egregious privacy violations that 
occur daily on the massive scale, and you seem to hold a particular dislike of 
PinkMeth.
It was even the court decision that e-mail contents fall under "expectation of 
privacy", however government doesn't give a rat's a** about this and massively 
reads people's e-mails. So why would you expect an operator of the hidden 
service to respect such things? They might even be located in another 
jurisdiction, where there is no "expectation of privacy" concept. Additionally, 
society has controversial views about what is "normal" and what is not. 
Otherwise we wouldn't even hold this conversation.

Too bad, nobody is out there to guard their privacy rights. This is just the 
fact. Rights are only as strong as the means of their protection.
