If you’re on Proton to be privacy-oriented and stop governments or corporations from accessing your data, do you really trust the company when their CEO is cozying up to an authoritarian regime? I just don’t see Proton fighting any information requests from Trump right now, and just from a utilitarian perspective that makes them a bad choice for me as a user.
Nothing. The CEO dared to congrat someone (Trump) that other people (including myself) heavily dislike from the wrong account. So, tolerant and rational people want to cancel him and his company.
Whatever, guys. I don’t care about Proton, I don’t care about it’s CEO, I don’t care about Trump (quite the opposite, actually). Be enraged on every little shit and don’t forget to ask even the grocery guy about his political preference. Maybe you’re giving money to someone supporting Trump or his local equivalent. The internet and its virtue signaling is becoming increasingly annoying these days.
What happened to proton?
Their Swiss CEO decided that supporting an authoritarian American neo nazi regime was a good idea
There is that, but did anything happen to the service itself?
Personally, I feel like their service, except for VPN, was always half assed.
The list goes on. I have only one account left with a proton email and the letter with a code so I can change that lies on my desk.
Good point. I actually quit proton a few years ago because of the lack of SMTP and caldav.
They definitely allow you to use pgp with people not at proton via the web ui.
There is no way to have a secure or private SMTP service.
Huh? STARTTLS? PGP encryption? What’s wrong with those?

And they decided that posting on Mastodon was bad so switched back to r*****.
How very neutral of him.
He’s not Swiss, he’s from Taiwan
Encountered someone from local instances in the wild.

I’m sorry but what possible positive can you find in Proton doing that?
In what universe does his kissing the feet of that dicator equate to us keeping our lives private?

No one asked. Bro blurted it out off the official account and people are understandably concerned
Concerned of what, exactly? Jeez, people really love drama.
Someone doesn’t know how to read writing on walls I see.
Someone else love useless drama.
