    that’s… mild. and doesn’t really have to do anything with mullvad itself (i am assuming here it was his own money, not mullvad funds). yeah, if people really wanted to boycott because of that then they should doubly boycott proton as well.

      Like 2 months ago or so it was a major event online. Everyone is so fast to judge, jump ship, and cast shade to. I’m suprised these people get anything done as often as they must switch services in today’s landscape.

        The key is to diversify your service providers. Then the migration takes only a little time vs leaving one that you use for everything.

        here, what the proton CEO is saying does concern the company itself, so it is a warning sign that things may get worse in the future.

        this isn’t something i would immediately delete my account over, especially since i still have 2 years of VPN subscription left, and it’s still better than anything google; but i’ll hold off into putting more eggs into their basket, and see how it is after those credits run out.
