You talking about the French protester from several years ago? Yeah, bud didn't even take the smallest step, like using a vpn, to protect himself. At the time, Proton said if a vpn was used they wouldn't have any data to give to the cops.

Same thing would have happened if the protester was using Tuta or any other email service.
