Just in the last few months. Their position has been always crystal clear on this issue. Please stop spreading misinformation for a personal grudge. Even one person who doesn’t switch from Gmail or Outlook to Proton (the closest privacy a friendly replacement) because of your bs is an unnecessary damage.

  • Years of great track record, consistent position over basically a decade, 7 years of 5-6 digits donations to nonprofits aligned with those objectives: “whitewashing PR”.
  • 1 tweet about a different topic: “here is their real position on privacy.”

Sorry, no.

That’s childish, petulant nonsense, especially since that would be illegal under Swiss law, even if this law is amended. Not to mention, it isn’t Andy Yen who gets to decide that anyway. It’s the board of directors, of which Tim motherfucking Berners-Lee is a member. You know, father of the World Wide Web.

They said would, not will. And you thinking a known Nazi sympathizer wouldn’t sell you out for a headpat is the childish part.

He’s not a nazi sympathizer, stop being ridiculous. And he has never once said he would give your data to the US government, Trump admin or not. You’re just straight up lying.

You and everyone like you are overly dramatic, terminally online chronic posters, making mountains out of molehills because you thrive on controversy and need something new each week to be outraged about.

10 years ago, Republicans were the party of big business and Dems stood for the little guys, but today the tables have completely turned

This is protonmails head supporting a Nazi.

Until corporate Dems are thrown out, the reality is that Republicans remain more likely to tackle Big Tech abuses.

This is him saying the nazis are on his side.

I don’t know what more needs to happen for people like you to accept he supports nazis.

Once you are a known Nazi supporter you cannot be trusted for anything because your brain is broken. He doesn’t need to say anything for it to be a threat.

Do you seriosuly not see how your claim is a nonsequitur? Like, how can someone in good faith quote a sentence that talks about antitrust and who supports big tech or “small tech” and conclude that “Nazis are on his side”, so he must be a Nazi.

I don’t know what more needs to happen for people like you to accept he supports nazis.

For once, he needs to support a Nazi and their Nazi ideas.

That’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard all week, congratulations. You’re insinuating that all Republicans are nazis, for one. It leads me to wonder if you were dropped on you head a little too much as a child. I could go on and point out further problems with your post, but if you’re calling everyone who disagrees with you a nazi, I honestly doubt you’re the sort of person to be willing or able to think critically about what you read, so why bother.

I’m sure there are a few republicans who have job security and haven’t turned Nazi. Romney for one. Shockingly, maybe even Mike pence. Even more shockingly, the cheneys (yes war criminals, no nazis). But the republican party is the party of fascism. Denying it and calling me a child doesn’t make it less true.

That’s a straw man. I didn’t say the party wasn’t full of fascists, I said not all of them are nazis. Just stop already, you’re embarrassing yourself if you have to invent things I said because you don’t have a good response to what I did say.

The way you phrased this makes it seem like it came from AI. It’s like right around the edges of a real argument but not quite.
