MODERATORS
They are technically not "owners" they are members of a "Board of Trustees" of a non-profit organization (the Proton Foundation). They are legally bound by Swiss law to uphold their organzation's goals of fighting for privacy rights.

I means its not like doomsday level situation that you have to drop everything you're doing and migrate, but its a good idea to pre-emptively move anyways, before he goes full elon.
We don't know how stong Switzerland's rule of law is, but you don't wanna wait and find out that it turns out the way like some other country's rule of law 👀
