Comment on Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts at Request of Cybersecurity Agency

  I found it odd back then that they shifted to strategy of saying how could he support Trump if Yen isnt sexist and isnt homophobic when uproar was Slater’s anti consumer past being ignored. And they kept shifting away from Slater career criticism like some form of gaslighting and ignoring it. And it worked on some people, since they forgot about the positive endorsement of Trump’s pick while omitting Slater’s murky past because look how not racist Yen is.

  But, Tim Cook groveling before Trump showed that people who’s goal is to make more money will sell themselves out to try and get within the inner circle if it is more financially advantageous to do so regardless of their personal ideologies. Money and power rules them. It’s fortunate for Proton the sucking up didn’t get them any further, since who knows if Yen would be giving golden gifts at Trump’s dinners if he’d been invited into the fold. “Dear Mr. President you are the most privacy respecting leader in the world and here is a golden statue as a gift.”
