    Does anyone have links to the dumpster fire of a reddit thread in one or the Proton subs? There was also one of r/privacy but I can’t find either so suspect they’ve been deleted to try to quell the flames.

    Extra weird because this is always the narrative, yet Trump could be any further from “standing up for the little guys” if he tried. It’s the same with the AfD in Germany, their voted policies (which is public as per the EU regulations) are as anti-consumer pro-corpo as you can be, even edging our truly crazy libertarian money sucker positions.

      “standing up for the little guys” actually means “being racist as fuck”. Hope this helps you understand their position.

    I am dissapointed that my VPN is getting involved in US politics. This is not something I want for this kind of service. I dont want to debate US politics here. That being said, I cancelled my annual autorenew for April and I would like some recommendations. Originally I was deciding between Mulvad and Proton. I’ve also seen some people in this thread using Tuta? I am in Europe and just want a service that prioritizes anonyminity and data protection. I don’t know how the dust will settle on all this Proton stuff. What would you all recommend for a provider?

      I was a Mullvad user until they dropped support for port forwarding, something I needed on a daily basis. Then I moved to Air Vpn. All things considered, Mullvad is a great experience, and I completely recommend it.

      I’ve used mullvad before and it was a great experience. As far as anonymity goes, I don’t think you can do any better than mullvad where you even have privacy friendly payment options. That said, I haven’t used proton VPN so I’m not sure how they compare feature-wise

      So apparently mullvad and windscribe are the best ones people use.

      And I am using windscribe no problem.

      It is however not as good integrated in Linux as nordvpn. But it’s a lot cheaper.

    They’re is no way Trump wrote that tweet. It is full of punctuation and clearly gets a point across. It was clearly written by someone else. Nevertheless, time to delete protonmail.

        I doubt very much his dictation sounded anything like that tweet. There may have been five or ten words in common.

          I’ve seen more than a few theories about exactly what Trump says, who does the stenography, and how much of it gets included in his tweets. Early in his presidency, the tone of his tweets was very fast-and-loose. Then the staff got shuffled and they started sounding more polished. But by the end of the presidency, they’d degraded back down to “Old Man Yells At Louds” levels of comment again.

    Really disappointing. Never imagined this from Proton. Truly dead to me now.
