Last year Andy yen also moved proton to non profit proton foundation with majority shares of the company and 5 trustees of which Andy yen is only one. The majority stakeholder in Proton AG is now legally bound to do whats best for Proton and their stated mission
So yeah Andy is kissing the ring and being a shit human but he’s not the entirety of proton. Still weird Andy from Switzerland felt the need to proclaim his love for trump though.
If you find another privacy focused email/vpn provider from a non14 eyes country that is owned by a non profit foundation then id be genuinely be interested but last i checked other alternatives are still full capitalist machines that haven’t put privacy over profit.
I was using Proton and SimpleLogin. Didn’t have a subscription, but was planning on it when I could afford it. Thank fuck I saw this shit and moved away before giving them a cent of my money.
Seconded. Proton’s CEO is a Trump-supporter, and he doesn’t even try hiding it.
I’ve canceled my Proton subscription and I’m going to move to another service when it expires. Proton is dead.

I am using tuta mail. Super basic and lacks features but it works and seems to have good rep in privacy communities.
