The biggest threat is that the CEO is pro maga (cue defenders saying "well ackshully") and thinks trump is better for his business (cue tankie both sidesers).
The other threat is that at some point proton gave an IP address or something obtained through a legal france->swiss court order allowing french ACABs to hunt and skin the most dangerous game: journalists
Edit, activist I guess https://www.itpro.com/security/privacy/360793/protonmail-criticised-sharing-activists-ip-address-law-enforcement
🤔 why is the privacy thing not the biggest threat? I would think that the privacy one would be more of a threat to privacy than the political stuff. Is that not the case?
I don't know how you can, with a straight face, separate "political" and "privacy" stuff. They are intrinsically linked.
The amount of hoops needed to make the IP address thing, which is just IP address, happen...massive
Sure, I can imagine the political issues could lead to privacy issues. My question was not about whether or not that's true[^1]. I was simply wondering why a possible privacy issue would rank higher than the actual issue that has already happened.
[^1]: Something more specific/objective might be helpful though. Saying he's "pro maga" is like saying he's "bad vibes"; it requires the reader to just take your word for it without knowing exactly why. But, again, my question was more about the ranking
I just don't think the IP address is a big deal. A category 5 probably outranks a definite tropical depression.
