Wasn’t there an announcement from proton a few days back to possibly move their data Centers out of Switzerland because of this?

If I have to fucking switch mail hosts again… what the hell is the point in using proton for privacy and now I’m sure that’s going to get ruined.

they’ve been threatening this for year to keep suckling at the tit of governmental subsidies to make Switzerland look more attractive for investors with them being here. I doubt they’ll follow through.

It depends, privacy has been their entire marketing pitch forever.

One would hope so, or their fundamental ethics as a company are nonexistent.

I self host mine. Honestly I just self host as much as I can to avoid stuff like this because while many European companies are great you just never know. I was with Tuta but decided to self host, same for when I was using Filen for backups. Hell I’m even self hosting my git repos and search engine now.
