Proton has servers in 127 countries, including Cuba, Russia, Venezuela... do they all count as ties?
You're here comparing Venezuela and Cuba to nazis, get out you pig
I’m here saying Proton has servers in 127 countries and they are widely different, so how do you decide to which ones they are "tied" (protip: They are tied to none, getting an exit node in a country benefit users from the countries next to it, and it also opens that country's geolocked content to the world). Get a brain.
Yes, but afaik they are not nazis nor are involved in the kind of genocidal actions israel is
Proton has servers in both Russia and Ukraine, and neither means Proton has ties with their governments. If you want to expand an Israel boycott to anyone doing business with any company from Israel then ok, but the word "ties" seems to imply some involvement or complicity with a government/regime/ideology, like they are connected to anything said place is doing.
Sure bro, the country that ended nazi germany is actually nazi.
Regardless of your opinion of 1940s Russia, don’t you think countries change over time?
USSR helped end Nazi Germany but nice revisionism lmao 🤡 Current day russia is 100% fash
Helped? Helped who actually? Who was the main combatent that was helped?
Yeahh I am not gonna participate in your little revisionist spiel, you can be delulu all on your own buddy.
Thanks, i was already getting dumber from this conversation
