Definitely supported the Republicans. It was a red flag to hold opinions like this:
He's not wrong about the Democrat party choosing the establishment over the progressive wing, but the idea that he supports the Republicans as being more likely to reign in tech companies is so laughable it's not even funny, and makes you wonder why Andy Yen believes it.
What other commenters have said before though is true: aside from this incident with the CEO, Proton has been careful to stay politically neutral and on message... It damaged their public trust but didn't destroy it.
