eMail is affected as well. There is no alternative. And mails are not private if not all participants use end to end encryption
Of course there are alternatives. That's the cherry on top of this crap pile: only regular non tech folks are affected. Nerds and actual criminals will just run an xmpp or simplex server and not care about the legislation.
