After their shameless Synology shilling a couple of weeks ago, today Techlore is trying to sell me Proton Pass.
Is Proton Pass a bad password manager? I don’t know. It seems okay, but I have no opinion.
What I do know is that Techlore is affiliated with Proton, which makes their newest 10-minute video - in which they reveal the affiliation only at the last minute - 10 minutes of my life I’ll never get back.
Unfortunately, In the business they’re in, the merest hint of a bias kind of invalidates any advice they give. As the saying goes, when you point out other people’s body odor, you’d better make sure you took a shower yourself.

If you have any interest in promoting who you endorse, you’re tainted and your integrity comes into question. It’s that simple.
You in your heart of hearts may genuinely be trying to be impartial, but we can’t know that for sure because we don’t have access to your heart of hearts. The only proof of your independence is keeping whichever company’s interests you promote entirely separate from your own interests.
When Techlore has affiliate links, or accept free flights to Taiwan from the companies whose products they review, they lose all credibility. If you do that too, you do too.
