I heard people claim for some time that Proton supports the Trump administration. I’ve only ever really seen the claim made based on a single tweet.

This person did a pretty deep dive and comes to the conclusion that they don’t, nor does their CEO.

I’m not saying I know what’s in that guy’s head, nor do I want to. But I’m wary of coming to an extreme conclusion about someone because of a couple of sentences that person wrote online.

    Not exactly but yes. And that was another case where Proton did a sorta unforced error, not to mention they basically confirmed that they can associate and profile people across accounts. Which already puts an important dent on their claims about privacy.
