This is what a kleptocratic oligarchy looks like folks. Suck up to the big man and he'll let you fleece the joint.
“Until corporate Dems are thrown out, the reality is that Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses.”
I don't believe that they haven't heard of Lina Khan.
Yes, big fan of Lina Khan, I worked with her in 2020 on the House report on antitrust (the House was controlled by Democrats back then). I've discussed this elsewhere, but certain events in 2022 made it very clear that further progress on antitrust was unlikely under Democratic leadership.

Eww I stepped in shit
Well good thing I just switched to mxroute
MXroute doesn't cater to users who require end-to-end encryption, advanced privacy features, or those who need built-in security measures beyond standard email protocols, as it's primarily focused on reliable email delivery and hosting rather than security-first communication.
Tuta would be a viable alternative to Proton.
No they don’t, but I never switched to proton for that. I switched to proton to get away from iCloud. I also never loved the idea of them keeping my gpg key in the cloud, I can just as easily do e2e with mxroute in a more secure way

+1 to mxroute for anyone thinking about it.
Been using it for a while (and worked with the guy who runs it) and it's been pretty much perfect.
"We're not liberal or conservative, we're a secret third thing!(conservative)"
They're swiss.
We have more parties in our equivalent of the presidential office than you have parties in total.
I have huge problems with this notion that you have to be either democrat or conservative. They don't even cover 50% of the opinions I, a green-liberal (actual liberal, not US-definition), hold.
You're absolutely able and allowed to have your own opinion different from what any party official says.
Yes but swiss people can still be absolutely piece of shit human beings. They proved that in WWII by helping fund the Nazis directly. Swiss people also aren't immune from rampant US party propaganda. You aren't magical, psychologically different humans than the rest of the world.
Publicly supporting an openly fascist dictator, whatever "political party" they are on, someone who directly opposes the stated mission and values of the company, means that they are piece of shit humans who cannot be trusted with our data because they will just lie with what they do with it just like how they lied to us about their company values.
I have a huge problem with parties period. Parties inhibit critical thinking. And I'm an American. And I don't want this. Eat the rich!

They vote for whoever helps them get paid the most.
Capitalist.
