it's really funny how different this story reads by the developers than by 404 Media. The PR on the story got traction before they could do anything about it. It seems like no one knows where the quote came from and we now have a flock of whistleblowers saying they don't recognize any of this. No sources, just a hivemind collectively referencing the same sourceless allegations. Someone successfully brought down Proton.
I don't pay for Proton services, so I don't really have any say, I just want to know what's true here.
AI/tech bro hate bandwagon. All aboard.
It's a hot topic. If CEO/CTO didn't want to alienate users, they should've kept their mouths shut lmao.
The problem with CEOs and tech bros is they think I give a shit what they've got to say. All of them. Elon is the worst on this, has to have an opinion on everything, just STFU.
I mean, I do give a shit what they say.
Andy Yen said "I'm going to fuck up a service you rely on."
I took them at their word and canceled.
