Neutral perspective about the case.

Proton, as an organization, has to follow the law and the Swiss court decided that MLAT is valid and Proton should provide information. Every organization and company has to do it. Of course, Proton can say "we don't follow the law", but then the organization will be out of business and executives could be criminally liable for breaching laws.

No contents of emails were provided as Proton cannot access them, which this case only confirms. Payment data or recovery data can be provided, following order issued by a Swiss court.

Another note: Organizations, including companies, and individuals have to comply with laws and court orders of their legal jurisdiction.

Taylor Wessing’s note correctly identifies that practically all European tech regulation, including [DSA & GDPR] is potentially vulnerable if U.S. companies decide to force European speech & data protection regulators to behave like any other European state or non-state actor, and render service through the treaties […becoming] vulnerable to constitutional attack the moment it is properly served, if not sooner.

@Jennifer it is.

Most of the terms and structures there would be so illegal in any halfway regulated juristiction that one could argue that it fulfills the definition of #extortion in some juristictions like #Germany, that I'd not be surprised if someone would make the case filing for asylum and pressing charges at the same time.

• OFC this is #NotLegalAdvice and I'd be confident that unless the accused execs were dumb enough to enter Germany the entire case would get tossed by prosecution due to lack of #MLAT with the #USA and impossibility to bring the accused to trial (which they have to be - there are no #InAbsentiaTrials)!
