@fri@veganism.social @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net I'm not so sure about that Read this https://medium.com/@ovenplayer/does-proton-really-support-trump-a-deeper-analysis-and-surprising-findings-aed4fee4305e And come back with actual examples of them being Trump supporters I'm as anti-trump as most Europeans with LGBTQIA+ friends, and I would personally have preferred if they had partnered with the Swedish 🇸🇪 mullvad, but from a quick DDG search, proton seems to be as neutral as possible, the and CEO seems to be left of center That said, I'll happily change my mind if you have proof otherwise that is not debunked in the linked post

@erilun06@social.vivaldi.net @fri@veganism.social @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net The CEO is trumpist and the PR department got the task to save the company's face by writing these medium articles. How is that not obvious? Also I don't understand how is proton vpn protecting anyone from big tech? These vpns only protect from your home ISP, nothing else, in fact on other fronts they make the situation worse by aggregating all the metadata about our browsing in one basket, isn't that bad?

@erilun06@social.vivaldi.net @fri@veganism.social @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net Left of center? Only if we redefine radical right as the new center, I guess...

@erilun06@social.vivaldi.net @fri@veganism.social @Vivaldi@social.vivaldi.net Here's the receipts I collected over on bluesky. https://bsky.app/profile/mav.wtf/post/3lfqtwxntzk2s It's not so much that he's MAGA, just fully supportive of it so long as they're doing things he wants. Which, IMO, is being at the table.
