What about Proton? If you mean the fiasco a few weeks back then that’s a false alarm where the internet just went apeshit over an innocent remark.
Edit: From what I’ve seen from these replies, it’s all false alarms and nothing actually implicates Proton here. A Swiss company is not obligated to put up a disclaimer saying Trump bad every time they want to talk about American politics (which they only do so far as it pertains to their privacy mandate).
The blog post where they talk about privacy being a non-partisan issue that effects people everywhere on the political spectrum, and warn the reader that Donald Trump is going to have effectively no checks on his power?
Yes, the one where they talk about this not being Trumps fault even though he is the fucking president and about all terror the right experienced under the previous administrations

They also only disclosed the accounts recovery email address. Everything else was obtained by Apple.
Why is reading sources so hard for people?
Also their announcement to stop posting on Mastodon and this blogpost

And they’re right, it’s not Trump’s fault that the NSA is as powerful and secretive as they are today, this is a problem decades in the making.
