Proton has stopped using their Mastodon account
-
That may be, but they have always done that. Reddit is the only place where they have a real presence for years. It's not like they are moving there now. They have always been predominantly there on the first place.
-
Yeah, it's pretty disgusting how much people abuse power once they have it.
Really makes me respect those who don't, but they are few and far between.
The average person just isn't something to write home about these days.
-
Good stuff to think about. Thanks! I think I’ll keep the email issue on my mental list of things to address as I keep FOSSifying and self hosting things.

The problem is they continue to allow Andy Yen, the CEO of Proton, to remain on the board.
-
Why wouldn't they? Especially after the lasafare opinions expressed by their CEO.
-
Yes that's true, and that seems quite natural. His poor communication in a tweet is not a reason to fire someone from a board, in my opinion. Especially since at the best of my knowledge he didn't do anything that harmed the privacy of anybody, nor he showed inclination to do so.
In any case, if you find yourself "assuming" that people that have years of track record caring about privacy and similar issue "don't care about privacy" or "are cryptonerds", maybe you should reflect a second.
This is why I said to go listen to her interview or read her pieces. -
I cancelled my subscription because of technical reasons, but now I can add political reasons on top.

I have had to explain this a hundred times in this god damn thread. THEY ARE LEGALLY TIED TO THEIR FOUNDATION'S MISSION, BY SWISS LAW, TO PROTECT THEIR USERS' PRIVACY! They can't collect your info and sell it! They LEGALLY CAN'T.
Fucking hell!!!
And the fact that their CEO expressed support for ONE GOD DAMN DECISION that Trump made, doesn't make Proton a MAGAT company! They have a BOARD OF DIRECTORS that manage the fucking foundation.
I mean what the hell has this community become? It's all complaints and bitching about Proton all the fucking time now. Like we can't even discuss any god damn progress or changes or as questions about Proton and their services anymore without being bombarded by this bullshit.
If you want to complain about Proton and keep posting your fucking unfounded conspiracy theory crap, GO CREATE YOUR OWN ANTI-PROTON COMMUNITY.
FUCK!

They legally can't. Period.
-
It’s not utterly clear what spaces and politics he aligns with. That would just be wholley unknowable.
Well you're right, of course, his alignment is knowable. In fact, if you read the article I linked, there's lots of context for knowing his alignment. Maybe you should try reading it.
You're going to have to bring receipts for those other claims.

techlore talked about this is their weekly livestream
to summarize he thinks it's got something to do with people on mastdodon bashing hate to the proton account there.
