Two weeks ago Protonmail CEO Andy Yen said he likes the Trump cabinet appointment Gail Slater and what she'll do for privacy, saying Dems are not the party of the little guy. Redditors are still declaring they'll be cancelling their (mostly free) service and continuing to have mental breakdowns.

Excerpt from Yen's comment:

This is not going to be a popular opinion, but on the specific issue of antitrust, Democrats fell short. In 2022, we campaigned extensively in the US for anti-trust legislation. Two bills were ready, with bipartisan support. Chuck Schumer (who coincidently has two daughters working as big tech lobbyists) refused to bring the bills for a vote. In the aftermath of this failure, great people like former Democratic rep David Cicilline left congress, leaving few strong voices for antitrust left in the Democratic party. In the meantime, at a 2024 event covering antitrust remedies, out of all the invited senators, just a single one showed up - JD Vance.

Proton is one of the few cloud service beyond iCloud which offers end to end encryption for non bussiness users tho proton also generously offers to store your recovery key themselves kinda defeating the point vs Apple who just tells you you are fricked if you loose it
