@hubertus@mastodon.social Yes, I agree that proton is still way better than google but what proton is doing is concerning. And it just feels that they market being private rather than truly living to that principle. Similar to how google markets simplicity. Nobody likes ads in their email. For me personally, I decided to slowly move to another alternative because I do not really want to find out.

@XNHQ@mastodon.social I think encryption at rest is real privacy. I think other features like the alias generation also are strong privacy tools. I do agree there are more robust privacy tools, but like anything there's a spectrum on convenience vs privacy and they're clearly trying to walk a line between them with a full suite even if that comes at the cost of things like a bigger attack surface. Reasonable minds may disagree and err towards something even stronger though, so I see your position.
