In an unexpected mask off “secure” email and VPN provider Proton took the stance of siding with the fascist MAGA Reps. Proton’s services are no option for me and many others any longer. Let’s collect and discuss alternatives (E2E encrypted email and VPN) here 🔐👇

Always try to provide:

-Server location (jurisdiction)

-Governance

-Integrity/trustworthiness/transparency

-User experience/ease of use (grade 1 to 10, lets take Proton as a benchmark with an 8)

-Pricing and links

If you know alternative setups, feel free to share, too.

    Companies are monarchies.

    A single person speaks for that company and drives the direction of that company the workers making the product have little to no say in the overarching ideals and principles of that product.

      I don’t think any CEO I’ve ever worked for speaks for me…

          Seems to me like the issue is that CEOs exist, not that this particular one has some personal opinion.

            Both can be true. CEOs influence the direction the company takes.

            Money talks and in that case, lots of people in this thread don’t want to encourage a company that endorse a fascist. Which is legitimate.
