In November, we added Secure Core, and today, we’re adding the Advanced Kill Switch.
This feature prevents all outgoing and incoming connections outside the VPN interface, meaning that your device will not be able to access the internet unless you connect to one of our VPN servers. You can learn more about how to set it up here: https://protonvpn.com/support/permanent-kill-switch/
We want to thank everyone who contributed during the alpha and beta phases by testing, giving feedback, and submitting suggestions for improvement. Your input is invaluable. And we’d like to keep getting it!
Please share your thoughts below so we can continue to make improvements based on your needs.

Nevermind that there are more secure and privacy respecting alternatives for both VPNs and Email. Shh. Not important.
Find me a company that will refuse to comply with a lawful order from the Swiss government and I’ll switch today. Until then, you have nothing to complain about.

Oh come on, still beating that dead horse? Isn’t it already way dead? Protecting or offering privacy does not mean lawless state. Proton is protecting its users privacy and at the same time, as a swiss company, has to follow swiss laws. The only law that matters is Swiss law.
By the way, about climate protestor, maybe it is time to get the facts straight. It is never mentioned and conviently left out always:
Also, the charges leveraged in the French case were theft and destruction of property, which were well evidenced, substantiated, and quite serious crimes. Their identity was known to police already.
