Unnecessary and deeply concerning bow to the new “king”

Update: position got backed up by an official Proton post on Mastodon, it’s an official Proton statement now. https://mastodon.social/@protonprivacy/113833073219145503

Update 2, plot-twist: they removed this response from Mastodon - seems they realize it exploded into their face!

    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.

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

    Regrading Update 2, maybe the other board members can push his guy out? I’m paid for to the end of the year, so I’ll wait it out a bit. I’d rather not jump ship, only to have that ship also for pro fascist too.

    I don’t want to mix tech with politics, but what in the actual fuck?

    I’m not sure what’s worse, kissing the ring or taking that Trump post seriously. He obviously did not write it, and he also obviously only makes statements like this to threaten others and secure their loyalty. Here we are a month later, and some of the richest tech bros in the country are expected at his inauguration.

    Sure. That’s exactly why small businesses thrive in democrat cities, right? And exactly why more small business popped up under Biden, right?

    Gimme a break. People are so blind and dumb.
