ProtonMail Complied with 5,957 Data Requests in 2022 - Still Secure and Private? - jlai.lu

Please tell me of a email service that is government proof. There is none that doesn’t and will never exist. Of course Proton is private and secure as the user is. All of this boils down to the user security hygiene.

They talk about for the number of requests has grown as the number of users has. Previously they advised users to use their onion address.

Additionally they said the emails and other stuff is encrypted so it’s really just some meta data that is being handed over.

Yes as I said before its not like yes I will use Proton mail for nefarious stuff and expect that Proton will defend you against a government. The user is responsible for their data safety.

I completely agree. It’s hard for a lot if people to look at the big picture and realize that the data handed over was likely for some pretty serious illegal stuff.

Additional, most people just are trying to hide their data from advertisers.
