Comment on ProtonMail Logged IP Address of French Activist; Should You Be Worried About Your Privacy?
_cryptagion@anarchist.nexus 2 months agoTheir service IS private. Their service is not anonymous, and they never claim it is. Privacy does not equal anonymity, and I wish you people would get that through your thick skulls and stop criticizing someone for doing the exact same thing you would do, in their position.

Nice, this proton apologist knows what everyone would do in their position.

yeah, I totally believe you would go to prison for a random person. in fact, all of us are stupid enough to believe that bullshit. so noble. so principled. a true paragon.

Originally the CEO said they would pack up and leave Switzerland if the government continued its course.
So apparently there is more than just one option.
Hey, I get it. When you put all your eggs in one basket you are committed. Personally I don’t commit to any corporation, especially ones that try to sell “privacy”.

it doesn’t matter if they intend on leaving the country, until they do they still have to fulfill any legal orders they get. they can’t get an order, then decide they won’t comply, and just leave the country. it would make them fugitives, wanted in any countries that have extradition treaties with their government. you’re not an idiot, even if you’re pretending to be in the hopes that I won’t point out the obvious stupidity in your argument. so why don’t you do us both a favor and stop doing your best impression.
