    Read the blog by the guy behind cock.li , he refused multiple illegitimate warrants so far.

    What matters is the jurisdiction of the service, not the one of the warrant author, otherwise china would have already warranted all data of all other world citizens lol

      Proton complies with Swiss law, and has to be channeled through Swiss official channels who rely the request.

      So there’s jurisdiction.

        That is true. But I wasn’t debating about this specific case, but rather the generalized statement.

        The comment I replied to implies “If there is a warrant, it is always legitimate and you have to follow it, because a lawyer said so”. That is not true and if it were the world would quickly go to shit, which I pointed out.

          I would say your interpretation was a bit extreme. Nobody implied a warrant from anywhere in the world.

            Again, it doesn’t matter where the warrant fomes from. What matters is where it goes to.

            And that detail is pretty important, while being completely left out. They say:

            it is not an option.

            But yes it is, depending on the jurisdiction.
