Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new “king”

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it’s an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

    I don’t want to mix tech with politics, but what in the actual fuck?

      Politics are mixed with everything.

      In that case, I see this as speak with your wallet moment. That statement has done it for me and I am dropping proton for Tuta or something else.

        I don’t think it is possible.

        I also think people are blowing this WAY out of proportion and don’t even realize their own hypocrisy.

        Extreme example: Jewish people happily drive Ford cars, even though Henry Ford was the only American mentioned in Mein Kampf, specifically for his hatred of Jews.
