Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new “king”

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it’s an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

    This is a stretch & honestly not worth abandoning proton because of this.<br> Don’t just abandon a good FOSS/Privacy project just because of a CEO’s (of a frickin Non-Profit in Switzerland) statements, you’re too busy arguing & not getting things done Have some nuance guys

    Could be 1000+ IQ chess move in disguise, appeal to Trump’s ego & get him to make trouble for big-tech Let’s see whether this actually affects Proton & decide from there

    as a side-note: people from techlore are scumbags

          No Biden is very much Neo lib, which is bad, but not near the same level as an actual fascist.

        Again, not a big deal, it’s based in Switzerland & they won’t let USA interfere with their politics

        But honestly the guy should’ve followed Swiss’s Neutrality stance & kept his mouth shut

        Does this affect the product ? Has it affected the product ? nope, not yet
