I've not seen a single article about Proton that's made me abandon them. Diversified away from, yes, but not abandon.

The privacy community will be under fire from very powerful interests, so I also take all criticism with a mountain of salt.

Whatever your comfort level, I hope that turns out OK for you.

I’m only using providers who have zero “nazi incidents”

Which Proton incident(s) do you consider "nazi"?

The ones that the Proton CEO knows about - he’s the one whose name keeps miraculously appearing next to “Trump” and “GOP.”

I use providers who are not “nazi-adjacent”
