Proton Mail Falls Under U.S. Jurisdiction

If you read their Terms of Service, at first glance, they reference the laws of Switzerland. However, because they now have offices in the United States — along with registrations, trademarks, copyrights, and patents in the U.S. — they also cite U.S. laws. The only two countries you'll see mentioned are Switzerland and the United States — nothing else.

Their CEO has, on several occasions, also praised Donald Trump. Additionally, Proton left the Fediverse because they couldn’t silence users there as they have on platforms like Facebook or Reddit. The fact that they’re now trying to silence journalists doesn’t surprise me.

There are better alternatives to Proton Mail.

So:

I'm going to China again in September (the last time was Feb 2020 and boy, that was a trip, I was masking before it was popular).

I quite like being online. I also am currently in the google ecosystem.

I notice that Protonmail has a good reputation and seems to offer similar services.

Now is your choice, fedizens, to tell me why they're a terrible company and not to be trusted.

«Just a few minutes after the Online Safety Act went into effect last night, Proton #VPN signups originating in the #UK surged by more than 1,400%.

Unlike previous surges, this one is sustained, and is significantly higher than when #France lost access to adult content.» - #ProtonVPN

I guess the same statistics applies to all the other consumer vpn vendors.

Für eigene Verbindungen die offizielle #Wireguard app verwenden. Alternativ evtl kleinere Projekte wie #WGTunnel github.com/zaneschepke/wgtunne oder #RethinkDNS (was noch viel mehr kann). OpenVPN auch okay.

Alles andere ist Schwachsinn, Firmen sollen aufhören irgendwelche komischen proprietären Anwendungen zu nutzen.

Für verbesserte Privatsphäre #MullvadVPN #AirVPN #ProtonVPN #IVPN und erstmal keine weiteren.

Für Anonymität #Tor.

#VPN.s schleusen jeglichen Verkehr durch fremde Server!
