They are a Swiss company first of all. Second, the CEO praised the Trump administration for being “anti-BigTech”, which is as far from reality as it could get, then tried to explain without even remotely admitting it is completely false. So he is either totally clueless or in bad faith. Then there was a huge wave of posts and articles about how he was misunderstood and how Proton is a nice and good company who operates for the good of mankind.
In my opinion each and all of these facts are more than enough to stay away from Proton and don’t let them anywhere near my personal data.
They’re a swedish company. I don’t think this would have any impact. Besides, I don’t think it’s a good reason to dump on then just because of that.

How does that jive with your saying that they don’t support the Trump administration?
I don’t support companies that support the Trump administration. You said they don’t, and then the very next post you say that they do. What the fuck?
My first post was a joke regarding the fact that Thunderbird mail is not Proton mail because they (Thunderbird) lack Trump-administration support.
That was not obvious. I’m glad I procrastinated and haven’t bought Proton yet.
Sorry for the confusion, I edited the comment
Hm… I see.
