Comment on Proton’s Lumo AI chatbot: not end-to-end encrypted, not open source
DreamlandLividity@lemmy.world 3 weeks agoWell, even the mail is sometimes e2ee. Making the comparison without specifying is like marketing your safe as being used in Fort Knox and it turns out it is used for payroll documents like in every company. Technically true but misleading as hell. When you hear Fort Know, you think gold vault. If you hear proton mail, you think e2ee even if most mails are external.

Email is almost always zero-access encryption (like live chats), considering the % of proton users and the amount of emails between them (or the even smaller % of PGP users). Drive is e2ee like chat history. Basically I see email : chats = drive : history.
Anyway, I agree it could be done better, but I don’t really see the big deal. Any user unable to understand this won’t get the difference between zero-access and e2e.
