  • The company's end-to-end encrypted email platform aims to protect user data, but recent events suggest potential vulnerabilities.
  • Proton Mail was also required to provide user data to Swiss authorities for a separate case involving a French climate activist, emphasizing the importance of proper Operational Security measures.
