Proton has already begun to cut some ties with Switzerland over "legal uncertainty." Lumo is the first product to change home, with Germany currently hosting its servers.

The company has also confirmed it's developing facilities in Norway, while investing over €100 million to build a "sovereign European stack" for its services, ensuring it "can’t be held hostage by Switzerland" if the laws change for the worse.

Switzerland's loss is Germany and Norway's gain
