I’m…not directing ire at anything, but directing ire at countries I don’t live in would certainly not be a good use of time. Proton sells a product that I think could be clarified. That’s all. You guys are a little strange yourselves.

Ok

They can easily state which countries Swiss authorities partner withβ€”if I can find that information, so can they!β€”otherwise the statement is effectively useless.

Which is why I think Proton could and should make it EVEN clearer, despite how easily the understanding came to you, personally. Like, openly list the countries your gov is currently cooperating with, for instance. Yes, people can and should do research, also. But what if . . . they didn't have to?

That's what's happening in this thread. People are discussing and evaluating the risks.

Its probably why he took his shirt off to begin with.

Can you genuinely understand then that not everyone has auto-memorized which corrupt governments are allowed user information from Proton?

Why all the hub bub in Europe about getting off of US tech if they are all just going to pass everything back and forth?

So Switzerland will turn over data to Russia? To the Saudis? To the Taliban?

I think they could and should make it much, MUCH clearer that handing over to swiss authorities = handing over to the US authorities.

Rahm Emanuel's coverup of Laquan McDonald's death can't be forgotten Democrats can embrace police reform or Rahm Emanuel as ambassador to Japan β€” but not both.

And, fuck Rahm.

I'm not Swiss. If they are bound by Swiss law to hand over my information to the US than the service is not as described. We are in danger here and Proton is making money off of those fears.

Proton indicates that this is not a possibility when selling their services. If they HAVE TO turn it over, then they are no different than any other service.

Comey didn't know he'd been fired, mid-speech as well. Trump is a coward. He doesn't fire people in person. He does it online.

My friends got trapped in UAE on a layover while the USA started a war. They called this number . . .
