  • That all makes sense.

    I did some digging to see what was that I had read, and I think it was a case a few years back of Proton complying with a Swiss subpoena requested by US, investigating death threats to Fauci. Proton disclosed (limited) information about the account that sent those emails.

    I think because Proton promised complete privacy, and did provide user information, it ended in my brain as “Proton is not as private as they tout it to be”.

    I am not advocating for protections of highly illegal acts, but since:

    1. PGP encryption is only good if both ends use keys, and
    2. Proton complies with Swiss law requests

    I stored Proton in my “Marketing bullshit” cabinet and never opened an account. Other than not selling my info to advertisers, it seems the same as Apple email, for example.

  • I am not a security expert, but I remember reading Proton is not really secure?

    Edit: expanded in comment below. I think what I remember is “Proton is not really any more “secure” than other email providers.”

  • I surely wish someone in the opposition showed up on Fox and other similar propaganda machines and said pretty much this, like it is. Eventually some will see it, and once you see it, you can’t unsee it. This needs to be hammered starting right now, with the LA fires.

    Mayor Pete could totally do it and get thru to some.
