The article is from December, so the interviewer couldn't have asked about their CEO's recent betrayal: https://insights.priva.cat/p/does-proton-still-stand-for-anything
Please summarize in what way he betrayed anyone?
Because I see nothing in that article.
People and businesses are allowed to have political opinions. I can disagree with them (or not) while still respecting the service they provide.
"Betrayal" might be a wrong word for it, but I find this disappointing because the current events are the reason I have tried using Proton instead of Gmail. A tweet wont ruin the functionality of Proton, but it goes against my personal rationale for making the switch.
