Goddammit, and I just signed up for a Duo account during their sale last year to try and de-google me and my partner's life.

Ugh, I guess it's still better than Google too, but I won't be migrating to their password manager or vpn. Now I have to fully anticipate leaving Proton ASAP as well. It's even more of a pita for my partner though, she's not a techie, part of the proton appeal was that the apps and integrations make switching convenient for her.

So fucking typical, I miss the "Don't be evil" days when engineers at least pretended to care about social issues and sometimes even actually did.

Wonder if he'll change his tune when Trump starts going after people using their messages?

This wouldn't have anything to do with US internet restrictions would it? Like how multiple states place age verification on porn sites? Like how more restrictions would pop up in a MAGA admin to keep it "safe".

That wouldn't benefit Proton at all now would it? They don't serve a product that would circumvent those restrictions right? A product they sell?
