Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new “king”

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it’s an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

Ingl, I think the only way to stay sane these times is to ignore what they say and look at what they do. As long as his products are up to my standards and values, I’ll just ignore whatever he says to appease whomever

Yep… But CEOs bootlicking daddy trump is pathetic non the less…

What people define should not be doing is using Proton as one stop shop like they did with Google.

Got to stay nimble

Nonetheless is one word :)

I cannot think of a free VPN that doesn’t suck; does anyone has suggestions outside of Proton for that, please?

Mullvad is is considered the gold standard but there is another that people recommend. Anybody can drop the other one?

Agreed. If I haphazardly ditched services based on the opinions of tech folks, I’d be reduced to using a pair of cans attached with string and nothing else.

Were the cans and string ethically sourced, though?

I saved them from a landfill! They smell kinda weird though.
