Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new "king"

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it's an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

These CEOs really don't want the average people to like them.

I don't think they can comprehend what an average person is.

~~I don't think he's technically a "CEO" anymore~~

He was one of the founders, but Proton AG has since transitioned into being majority owned by a Non-Profit organization, and he's only one of the five board members of that Non-Profit.

Edit: I mean, yes he is a "CEO", but what I'm trying to say is, he isn't the sole owner, nor some dictator.
