    @copharynx whoops, sorry for the accidental vagueposting. I should know better by now. Here's a concentrated rundown: https://techstory.in/proton-mail-faces-backlash-over-claims-of-political-neutrality-amid-ceos-praise-for-republican-party/

    Partial rebuttal: https://medium.com/@ovenplayer/does-proton-really-support-trump-a-deeper-analysis-and-surprising-findings-aed4fee4305e

    Statement that was supposed to clear it up: https://chaos.social/@FlohEinstein/113838145291613883

    My thoughts on the above: https://neuromatch.social/@iris/113838382200970403 (what I've replied to directly is no longer available but I think the gist comes through still)

    Separately, not a fan of what they've prioritized of late and a shift away from both transparency and what I want to spend money on: https://alextheward.com/posts/proton-wtf/

      What the heck is going on over at Proton?
      Adding an LLM and a Crypto Wallet within one week of each other? Something weird is going on at Proton and I want to talk about it.

      @bluegreenandfree@mastodon.energy @FlohEinstein@chaos.social @protonprivacy@mastodon.social agreed. In isolation it's not terrible, but it falls short of being a response to the can of worms he opened. Moreover, being "neutral on politics" is a political position, and this statement also doesn't do justice to the topic, especially given the responsibilities of an organization like Proton. What you choose to classify as political is political. They of all people should understand that. So to me this reads as somewhat of an abdication of responsibility (although tbh I was expecting worse).
