I have been using PIA for years and I was thinking of switching to Protons VPN (as well as storage, email and password manager) and I was wondering what everyone else thought of it. Is it as stable and useful as PIA?

PIA has proven in court that it doesn’t keep logs, but what about Proton?

    Their “email encryption” promise only works if you’re sending an email to another protonmail user.

    Just wanted to mention that this is more of a limitation of email, than ProtonMail. Copies of the messages will exist on the other side. So if the recipient’s server doesn’t encrypt, then the conversation can’t be fully encrypted.

      Yeah, email is inherently insecure.

      Hence why you should use PGP yourself, and never give your private keys to the email provider
