- Comment on Proton launches privacy-first alternative to Excel and Google Sheets 1 hour ago:
It was enough to get me to unsubscribe and move to tuta for email, pcloud for storage, and mullvad for VPN. I still have a free proton account but they will need to really regain my trust to get me to resubscribe.
Regardless of the walkback, it takes a real egghead to ‘accidentally’ praise an obviously corrupt fascist. Even from the narrow perspective of ‘what is best for their business’ it was moronic. You really think the guy in bed with Peter Theil, Palantir, Musk, etc etc and loves dictators who “rule with an iron fist” is somehow good for your privacy company and your users?
The statement revealed this dude as either at worst a fascist or at best a dipshit. Neither option is great for CEO of a company that requires very high trust from its users. Do I want to rely on and pay for products from the company he oversees? No not really.
