And no i do not have the privilege of running a local model. I have heard of a AI called Maple and tried it out, it was pretty limited to the point that it was a deal breaker (25 messages per week cap). I would like to know more services

The audits mean nothing when the Swiss government can compel Proton to do whatever they want, as they've done before.

The only difference between what you're describing and what Proton did is that Proton were obligated to notify the user.

"Swiss law prohibits the country’s courts from compelling a VPN service to log IP addresses"
Seems like they breached only IPs that accessed emails (I haven't read their email terms before, but the VPN says "strict no-logs policy" - which is audited), but because of the zero-knowledge encryption they can't access email content.

ps: Another difference is that the government had to demonstrate on court there were basis to believe certain emails were linked to criminal activity... not that I don't believe it's bullshit, but in the USA they can require any data for any reason without demonstrating probable cause and you can't even mention it's happening.
