Proton is garbage that accepts blacklists at face value, despite Israel.

Some people on Lemmy are retarded. They think saying things without justifying it means that people should care.

Nothing. There is a large contingent of anti Proton misinformation bots and uninformed laymen on Lemmy.

If you dig too much into it, it invariably ends up with a bunch of hearsay, very little to no evidence, and misunderstanding of rudimentary functions of the internet and international law.

TL;DR responder is a proton brand fan

Three comments by this account total and they’re all on this post.

As if there were any doubt

Given the comments on your own profile, it seems odd that you go looking on other peoples profiles as a way to target them

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

I don’t have to look in your profile. There’s an icon next to your username warning that your account is brand new. For the purpose of identifying bot accounts

[–] dusk@piefed.social 0 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

You need to step away from the ai, and try to remember how to think again.

I have a new account on piefed due to the lemmy instance I was using repeatedly having issues

yeah that’s why you made an account minutes after my comment was made and was used to immediately reply to my comment.

You’re not fooling anyone pal

[–] dusk@piefed.social 0 points 2 hours ago (1 children)

oh for sure, you are terribly important, and we are all after your lucky charms

stop eating tin foil.

[–] EncryptKeeper@lemmy.world 1 points 2 hours ago* (last edited 2 hours ago)

You might as well just burn this one and start your next one. If you want it to be more believable you should at least make some other comments around various communities to make it look real first before you dive right into the Proton misinformation. And wait a few days for the new account bot warning to disappear

First off, proton accepts blacklists as doctrine, even though israel is in it.

Second, they removed a bunch of accounts the US demanded they remove, without cause. Proton is GARBAGE! They are the enemy.

Does Proton give its users data and internet history to Israel? GhostVPN for example was founded by Mossad Unit 8200, even caught luring and offering ludicrous sponsorship deals to all anti-zionism youtube channels, to spy and report all its users database to israel. Is Proton the same?!

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca -3 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

What I can tell you is that there are several dozen blacklists, and proton takes them at face value, with no appeal option, even though Israel puts their critics on there.

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 6 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Lots of telling, not a lot of showing sources

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca -4 points 6 hours ago* (last edited 6 hours ago)

You can go fuck yourself with israel, have fun with that. They aren't giving lovers much I hear tell. Good luck!

[–] nednobbins@lemmy.zip 3 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Can you post the evidence against Proton?

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca -3 points 6 hours ago

Ha ha ha, yeah, like I have the ability to fight back from the devil.

[–] floquant@lemmy.dbzer0.com 2 points 6 hours ago

Blacklists of what?

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca -5 points 7 hours ago (2 children)

So what you're saying is that literally every provider is garbage.

If proton can't make the cut, nobody can

Check out NymVPN. Far superior.

[–] bedwyr@piefed.ca -1 points 7 hours ago

Proton is not the only game in town. Proton is ziocuck garbage. There are others.
