When called out on it, they then doubled down on this dogshit take: https://archive.ph/quYyb
I was thinking about perhaps moving things to Proton, being European and all, and touting privacy etc. Looks like that won’t happen.

Maybe he hit his head or has been replaced by bizarro Andy yen. In any case I can't believe he would do this to his own company. I started to give him the benefit of the doubt until he updated his statement saying that JD Vance cares about privacy and antitrust... I was like bro okay in done.
I can't catch a break.
EDIT: Nope. It's my fault. I was warned about Proton, and I didn't listen. I deserve this.

Fucking pathetic
Damn, not a great start to 2025 but I guess migrating away from Proton will be this month's project.
When people "turn" conservative the things they say never make sense. It's like they've been slowly turning into a subhuman and something happened to exist right when their mind reached out for an explanation.
I'm a huge fucking racist piece of shit... because David Lynch died! LOOK AT ME!
Goddammit, and I just signed up for a Duo account during their sale last year to try and de-google me and my partner's life.
Ugh, I guess it's still better than Google too, but I won't be migrating to their password manager or vpn. Now I have to fully anticipate leaving Proton ASAP as well. It's even more of a pita for my partner though, she's not a techie, part of the proton appeal was that the apps and integrations make switching convenient for her.
So fucking typical, I miss the "Don't be evil" days when engineers at least pretended to care about social issues and sometimes even actually did.
