ProtonMail Amends Its Policy After Giving Up an Activist's Data -(archive)-

The email service says it was unable to appeal a Swiss court’s demand to log the IP address of a French climate advocate.

This weekend, news broke that the anonymous email service ProtonMail turned over a French climate activist’s IP address and browser fingerprint to Swiss authorities. The move seemed to contradict the company's own privacy-focused policies, which as recently as last week stated, "By default, we do not keep any IP logs which can be linked to your anonymous email account."
