For the love of all gods, stop recommending Proton, it’s run by a fascist Trump-loving cryptoscammer that hates open standards even more than Silicon Valley tech-bros. You might as well use American companies at that point.
That’s strong accusations and the first I’m hearing of that. Do you have a source? Because the only controversy I know of is that their CEO praised Trump’s pick for attorney general for the antitrust division a bit too enthusiastically. Which is not a stellar look but that does not make him a „fascist Trump-loving cryptoscammer that hates open standards.“
The only place people are throwing up the whole Proton / Trump controversy is Reddit and Lemmy. Lemmy is particularly worse. As bad as the endless scrolling of Linux praise and Windows bashing.
There’s an article somewhere where someone did a deep dive and ultimately concluded that the Protons CEO views do not coincide with that of Trump or his party.

Would you have that link by any chance? That would be neat to use as a counter argument.
Yeah completely omitting Slater’s work lobbying on behalf of big tech like Google and Facebook to increase data mining when the whole defense hinged on that she’d be good for little tech made the medium article seem more like it was from a corporate PR stream. So intentionally deceiving playing up identity politics or not doing its due diligence what a quick wikipedia and Google search of the person Yen glazed over would reveal.
Her past is too questionable for a privacy company to endorse. But, move from Google to proton is still an improvement at the end of the day with its country of origin being its strength despite whatever the founder ceo may think.
Idk, it sounded more like „Man, that Hitler dude sure put the right guy in charge of the Autobahn network“.
Unless that Attorney General is indeed comparable to Goebbels. I dunno, I don’t follow US politics that closely. Politics at home are already depressing enough.

Edit: Also that only addresses his alleged fascism, but none of your claims about him being a cryptoscammer or against open standards.
Skimming through it I have only seen discussions about his praise of the trump administrations pick for attorney general for antitrust (which I already knew about). Haven’t seen anything about crypto scams or dislike of open standards.

That’s something a Skyrim NPC would say.

I am assuming he means this post from the community you linked.

Thanks!
The top comment on that thread seems to counter the arguments quite extensively
