Comment on Proton 2024 Lifetime account fundraiser for online freedom | Ends on January 5th
bloup@lemmy.sdf.org 2 weeks agoThe irony is, I like proton because I don’t think you should trust literally any business to behave altruistically, including proton. By structuring the business in the manner that they have, I don’t just have to trust them. I just have to trust that the people in charge don’t want to go to jail or get fined, which is literally not true for any business owned by private individuals.

Well yeah, Proton is basically capitalism working as intended. They’re a smallish business exploiting a gap in the market.
