I dont really blame Proton for this. Accessing anything on the internet on a clear connection and not through a VPN or TOR makes it your own damn fault when you get identified.

Victim blaming at its finest!

I mean, I understand where you’re coming from, they absolutely shouldn’t log IPs. BUT, if you’re committing crimes or even doing legal things the government doesn’t like, it would behoove you to put in the absolute bare minimum of OPSEC at least.
Like, some people know they have STDs and don’t warn people and spread them, right? And while the spreader is obviously the problem there, some commonly accepted advice to the victim is “you should have worn a condom anyway.” And they should have worn a condom to protect themselves (and also the spreader should be held liable.)
Like the previous example, anyone using any online service (for secrety things) should know to put a VPN condom on before they put their data inside that sexy, slutty server rack. And like how contraceptives were that knowledge needs to be spread.
