    Well no, their call to action isn’t to not give anyone else money. They didn’t have anything negative to say about their competition like 1Password. They’re just warning you about the shady things Google and Apple are doing specifically. And as an alternative they’re offering their own solution instead, which also doesn’t cost any money.

  Proton enabled passkeys in their free tier. So ultimately, yes by using their free tier and being safe in the thought that you can always leave if you want, that might drive you to pay for a paid plan.

  But companies trying to earn your business by offering you a good honest product is not at all the same as a company using anti-consumer practices to keep you from leaving lol.

    We’ve tried to stay true to the intention behind passkeys. With Proton Pass, passkeys:

    • Are easy to use, no matter your device or platform
    • Can be quickly shared or exported
    • Use an open-source implementation
    • Are available to everyone with our Free plan
