What I was referencing was the political news recently with their CEO. Lotta people up in arms about that one. However I haven't heard of the email one. Was that the one where the Users IP got leaked/turned over?
Any links you can share?

Yep. I think this is the one I originally read. It goes into some detail about why the mail client functions differently from the VPN (for example) and Proton even suggested a way to prevent what happened for any future users. It's prescient advice for any user or activist that relies on secure email, Proton or not. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2021/09/privacy-focused-protonmail-provided-a-users-ip-address-to-authorities/
