Comment on ProtonMail Logged IP Address of French Activist; Should You Be Worried About Your Privacy?

Yeah, they should just go to prison for someone they don’t know and had nothing to do with, that’s the only answer we should be ok with!
Do you hear how stupid that sounds?

Right, because corporations are widely known for going to prison when they break the law. Where exactly did they imprison Facebook for interfering in elections? Running illegal experiments on people? Pirating books and pornography? Surveilling children and selling their data?
Look at Mullvad. They’ve denied access to their data multiple times, they got raided, and nothing of use was recoverable. That’s what respect for privacy looks like. Proton could set their infrastructure up in this fashion, but instead they’ve chosen to just hand out user data freely.

Now you’re comparing apples to oranges? Is that what you do when your position is untenable?

So Proton’s no-log policy is an apple and Mullvad’s no-log policy is an orange, is what you’re saying?

No, I’m saying that you’re comparing email to a VPN. You’re not stupid, you know it’s a bad comparison, which is why you didn’t compare Mullvad to ProtonVPN, because you know your argument would fall apart immediately.
