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!

Honestly I'll still be using Proton and recommending it because it's just good and a net benefit for everyone, but goddammit Andy you should've taken Swiss neutrality to heart this time and not said anything.

1940s Swiss bank neutrality.

just so you know they have doubled down on their official Proton account. It is not just Andy's opinion: https://lemm.ee/post/52665828/17509919 https://old.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1i1zjgn/comment/m7ahrlm
