    And then I am the one exaggerating… I’ll say it again, Proton is just another company that managed to find clever ways to profit from a group of people who value things such as “privacy”.

    They’re just a very large marketing effort with little to nothing to show but everyone is convinced they’re actually protecting users while they keep pushing proprietary / half open and non standard stuff as solutions for problems already solved with truly open tools, standards and protocols.

      Proton did nothing wrong here; in fact, it is working as intended.

      No email content or attachment was provided in this case because they (Proton) have nothing to give. Now, imagine if this user were using Gmail instead of Proton.

      The article title is clickbait and is trying to incite outrage from the crowd. Don’t fall for it.

        now, imagine if this user were using Gmail instead of Proton.

        Now imagine if the user was using Gmail + PGP… same end result. Proton delivered no extra value whatsoever.
