I feel like some people just hear "crypto" or "ai" and start screeching and clawing at the air.

Not every feature needs to be for you specifically, these features are optional and don't compromise or even impact their other products. They seem to be on-brand in being more privacy-focused alternatives to some of the existing market options while remaining accessible, and keeps Proton in the game depending on how the landscape develops.

I don't use Proton (yet) but I generally like what they're doing and hope they succeed, and I don't see any of these developments as negatives, just more competition.
