This is fucked up. I had proton in good consideration, security wise. I even saw it as a good alternative to big tech (it doesn't need to be perfect).
These last reports change everything, I cannot trust the quality of those products and on the advertised security strengths. "Fast and no eyes on code", doesn't inspire too much confidence. "No time for security testing", defeats the whole advantage (unique selling point) of your company.
I guess Tuta is the alternative I will consider and promote, after knowing this.
Tuta uses AI internally. Is why Yen was talking about them in the emails
My issue is not with the use of AI. Is with how the AI is used, the internal processes than ensure the quality of the product and that the focus of the provider continues to be on the matters why I first bought their product.
These exchanges in the article, blow every single point described above.
