It seems the guy keeps digging a bigger and bigger hole for himself. Sigh…
By the “little guys” he means himself.
By himself he means corporate CEOs.
I migrated my custom domains to Tuta and canceled my Proton subscription as a result of all of this.
And Proton had fucking better give me a prorated refund.
Fucking pathetic
Way different stance than 8 years ago.
That’s a nice one to rub Andy’s nose in. I’ll put that one in my cancellation note.
I checked archive and it wasn’t saved to the wayback machine so I added it in case proton deletes it. https://web.archive.org/web/20250115163936/https://proton.me/blog/trump-control-nsa-privacy
Wow. And I had just about now completed moving my addresses over, fucking hell
Mullvad then I guess?
One of my favourite things about using an email relay is how easy it was to change email addresses. Unfortunately I was changing to Proton. Fortunately I was using my own domain! Unfortunately I pre-paid 2 years.
Same! And there’s not a good email alternative that’s as popular
Cool, I’ll add subscriptions to Proton products.
You can donate directly to fascists
How did both him and and the rest of the board think this was a smart thing to stand by? Does he really think people interested in privacy also support Trump?
What a way to alienate your entire customer base
Little guys? Like Coca Cola?
I hope you all see thru Trump’s Big Tech bullshit. It’s not to reign them in to make America competitive - or whatever other horseshit he spews out of that asshole he calls a mouth. It’s to get rid of the others so that he controls and censors the fuck out of the only avenue of social communication like his handlers.
Maybe he hit his head or has been replaced by bizarro Andy yen. In any case I can’t believe he would do this to his own company. I started to give him the benefit of the doubt until he updated his statement saying that JD Vance cares about privacy and antitrust… I was like bro okay in done.
🤦 Can we get this in actual text or maybe a cool link to the actual content for those of us who need it for accessibility & the rest of us who don’t like trying to read pixelated garbage? Screenshots of text are such a scourge. 😭
Well thats a fuckin shame.
Good to know. Bye Proton.
Well I no longer will be recommending proton to people. Can’t trust anyone this stupid with privacy.
“worked in media at Fox” the TV Cabinet expands! Yikes.
It’s all just propaganda. Media people will be helpful in that endeavor.
