People rightly got upset and moved services when Yen spouted his authoritarian fascist nonsense. Those who didn't weren't "Proton apologists", they were right leaning or centralist's (read as: "bUt BotH sIdEs") who also happened to take privacy and security seriously. They weren't defending Proton really, they were defending "one of their own". Personal I'd like to see Yen immediately removed from the company and Iay return to proton.
