What a childish take.

Proton cannot operate outside of the law. Swiss laws may be privacy friendly, but that does not imply that court orders can be ignored.

But if you think so, then please name a single entity that after not complying with a court order, was still allowed to continue operations or was not fined.

You know that it's possible to push back against surveillance without committing crimes.

Stop being so disingenuous with the false dichotomies.
