I heard people claim for some time that Proton supports the Trump administration. I’ve only ever really seen the claim made based on a single tweet.
This person did a pretty deep dive and comes to the conclusion that they don’t, nor does their CEO.
I’m not saying I know what’s in that guy’s head, nor do I want to. But I’m wary of coming to an extreme conclusion about someone because of a couple of sentences that person wrote online.

I wrote the their customer support and they actually sent me a medium post saying how the CEO’s opinion was misconstrued.
Which was weird as hell because it just made things more suspicious. Anybody can write a medium post.
Not that surprising since on reddit the proton-team account stated the same positions as Andy did on Twitter before deleting after they saw the message wasn’t taken well. They didn’t bother to distance it as opinions of Andy, but took the stance of it being an organizational opinion.

And you can see reddit user responses bringing up Slater’s background but being ignored. Kind of funny the medium article writes an essay and does so much research into showing how Andy isn’t racist, but doesn’t do any research on Slater.
