The point is that the headline is true. Proton helped the FBI uncover that person’s identity, by revealing their banking information.
Yes, it was legal for the Swiss government to request that information and for Proton to release it when asked.
Those facts aren’t mutually exclusive.
I don’t understand why you’re responding so aggressively.
Proton has a history of breaking the spirit of its promise to users. Does Tuta?
This marks Proton’s third known disclosure to authorities. They previously handed over a recovery email for a Catalan Democratic Tsunami activist and were forced to log a French climate activist’s IP address via Europol — despite claiming they don’t log IPs by default.
Each case followed the same script: foreign law enforcement pressure, Swiss legal compliance, user anonymity compromised. Like watching the same Netflix thriller where the plot twist stops being surprising.
Sounds just like Proton in the article:
Proton AG clarified they shared no data directly with the FBI — technically accurate but missing the point.
Apparently the tradeoff is a lot more features in exchange for your ram.
The leak site has links at the bottom.
a single company might download the same code hundreds of thousands of times in a day, and the next day, and the next
Why would anyone ever need to do this?

The person who posted would be the moderator for that post.
It would eliminate the problem of multiple places to post the same subject matter.
The post would have tags (ex : ask lemmy, meditation, gardening …), which would simplify crossposting. The post would be searched for like that.
It sounds like what you want is microblogs. All of the functionality you’re asking for exists on the microblog side of the Fediverse.
Post to your account instead of specific communities on whatever topic you want and tag it based on how you want people to search for it.
So this, but Discord.
That page 404 errors for me. Here’s an alt:
This is the original website you could have linked.
Please don’t make the post link go straight to a file.
Weirds me out when I think I’m going to a website and suddenly it’s asking where I want to download to.
When the president does it, that means it’s not illegal.

When a rich person does it, that means it’s not illegal.
Is there an intuitive way to tell the difference?
I tried to think of other places where dis- vs mis- is used, but we only ever seem to use one:
be mindful of how live music venues are in cahoots with stealing profits from artists and smaller venues.
So… sneak in to the live show and throw money at the artists like strippers. o7
Printing guns wouldn’t be a problem if you just make all bullets cost $5000.
Thanks for explaining. I’m not “people”.
I had a similar feeling about people leaving Discord for <other service that will do the exact same thing>.
