I just came across these "disturbing facts about proton mail". Let's say, hypothetically, that I administer a small org that now wants to move away from proton.
I guess I should just learn pgp, but that would be a tough sell for any boomer members.
EDIT: thanks for all the responses! It seems like my intuition was correct: email is inherently insecure, and proton is no worse than other email providers insofaras you don't let their marketing cause you to drop your guard. If it's illegal, keep it offline.
I found the dude talking with Proton on the subreddit here from before he wrote the article - https://reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/d58cq1/protonmail_questions_and_concerns/
Anyways, it’s…Proton won’t protect you from the govt. Simple as. I use it to prevent corporations like google tbh. I already accept that the govt. has my info.
nice find. Look at this https://protonvpn.com/blog/hongkong/
Very reminiscent of the other CIA controlled program, notepad++. They really go out of their way to support CIA regime change operations. Proton is based in Taiwan and I can guarantee you that Taiwanese companies NEVER rock the boat. I've worked at many companies in Taiwan.
Proton is most likely a modern Crypto AG.
