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!
There is no way Trump wrote that tweet. It is full of punctuation and clearly gets a point across. It was clearly written by someone else. Nevertheless, time to delete protonmail.
Regrading Update 2, maybe the other board members can push his guy out? I'm paid for to the end of the year, so I'll wait it out a bit. I'd rather not jump ship, only to have that ship also go pro fascist too.
Can anyone recommend a decent free vpn? I can't afford to pay for one rn and theirs is the only reputable free vpn i know of :/
I'm not going to lie, I've been burned by every free VPN I've used due to one scandal or another. I just gave up and pay for Mullvad when I need one. I haven't done much research, but the Brave VPN is probably a decent free one. Or Tor, but it might not be what you're looking for.
I’ve not used it but I see people recommending Mullvad (sp?) a lot.
So Proton is out.
Sorry, I won't trust a service that licks fascist boots.
I was about to pull the trigger on Proton. Good to know, I will never use this service now.
This also reinforces my belief that email should be provided by the government. If they are going to spy on me anyways might as well give it straight to them.
I am sick of private companies providing the primary way we communicate when they can kick you off their platform because they think you look funny.
Fuck
I’m not sure what’s worse, kissing the ring or taking that Trump post seriously. He obviously did not write it, and he also obviously only makes statements like this to threaten others and secure their loyalty. Here we are a month later, and some of the richest tech bros in the country are expected at his inauguration.
Someone remind me, what's the first chapter in On Tyranny?
