Proton CEO embraces Trump for "standing up for the little guys"
Proton CEO embraces Trump for "standing up for the little guys"
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!
You're viewing a single thread.
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
Nah he can go fuck himself. Just like someone sucking up to any other fascist dictator.
So...... Biden wasn't one too ? (He IS a mass-murderer)
Just saying, Wait & watch (I'm a Non-American)
No Biden is very much Neo lib, which is bad, but not near the same level as an actual fascist.
It is not just Andy’s opinion, official Proton accounts have doubled down on it too:

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
Listen to what you're saying man - Spinless coward is gonna spineless coward, and he showed us he is a spinless coward - can't trust a person with no integrity.
A coward that can be removed & who is also in Switzerland Also, have some patience, who knows we might see a change in opinion
