Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new "king"
Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it's an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503
Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!
I am dissapointed that my VPN is getting involved in US politics. This is not something I want for this kind of service. I dont want to debate US politics here. That being said, I cancelled my annual autorenew for April and I would like some recommendations. Originally I was deciding between Mulvad and Proton. I've also seen some people in this thread using Tuta? I am in Europe and just want a service that prioritizes anonyminity and data protection. I don't know how the dust will settle on all this Proton stuff. What would you all recommend for a provider?
So apparently mullvad and windscribe are the best ones people use.
And I am using windscribe no problem.
~~It is however not as good integrated in Linux as nordvpn.~~ But it's a lot cheaper.
Edit: only on nixos you don't have the app.
Lmao, proton looked sus to me for a long time. Good I never felt for anything more than their email.
May it live forever even if they delete the toot: https://web.archive.org/web/20250115165213/https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503
good thing too, because the page is now deleted
Nothing good is allowed to happen ever again.
Really disappointing. Never imagined this from Proton. Truly dead to me now.
