@protonprivacy I was interested, right up until you introduced all the AI bollocks

@rachel @protonprivacy Precisely how everybody feels about all of this. And I've been a paid subscriber for getting on for a decade.

@krozruch @rachel Thanks for the feedback all, Proton Scribe can also be run locally on your device and you have to opt-in to use it by selecting local or server-side before entering a prompt for it to do anything.

You can also completely disable it from the settings menu.

Let us know if you have any other concerns.

@sontags Shouting won't help.

@niika Possibly, but ordinary feature requests (as others did) from years back did not work either.

But hey, as a paying customer I can now let some AI crap write my emails. And with my free account I can no longer color-label my calendar entries as they managed to make this a paid feature...

See, I just felt the urge/need to shout.

@niika However, if you have a better idea on how to act when a company initially focussed on secure and simple products jumps on every hype train out there while neglecting very basic features I am more than open for suggestions. Are you involved with Proton?

@protonprivacy Warning: Cryptocurrency Scam Alert!!!

I want to warn everyone about a scammer responsible for stealing my funds.
His Bitcoin wallet is:

bc1q6h274e67rdr7xpn2mr2ttnssjzx3rhlkug6m5q

He scammed me for 0.01909606 BTC

Here’s how it happened:

I sent BTC to my Revolut wallet:

bc1qqrrqdqrc44yn6saw20xj23uzes4gccqeur5dtx

But the funds were rejected by the Revolut system, which does not accept cryptocurrency sent from the Kucoin exchange.

Revolut allowed me to send the funds to another address on the Bitcoin network, so I transferred them to:

1PXoo8aaKQEzJ39f98y6US7F5QixeJNRe7

The transaction appeared in the blockchain as "pending":

b51ef474dedba6f44098b86f7f62a66abc38d2c6a2642a49e1414c32991d28e3

Later, the status changed to "invalid". I then realized it wasn’t a transaction from my Revolut wallet.

The fraudulent wallet:

bc1q6h274e67rdr7xpn2mr2ttnssjzx3rhlkug6m5q

Had around 300-400 Bitcoins at the time, and now it has around 1363.

Revolut unprofessionally insisted that Binance had the funds. Later, they claimed the funds were never on Revolut, and then that they couldn’t be recovered. Recently, they changed their stance, stating that the transaction is still incomplete and that they are using every strategy to recover the funds. Overall, they keep telling me to wait for an update. It has been 4 months since April 10th, and I still haven’t recovered my savings.

I assume that the wallet:

bc1q6h274e67rdr7xpn2mr2ttnssjzx3rhlkug6m5q

Belongs to a thief who is somehow stealing Bitcoins.

Even though I am a sick, poor man living on a pension, I still hope to recover my savings. I now realize that entrusting all my savings to cryptocurrencies was a mistake.

Please be cautious and share this information to prevent others from falling victim to a similar scam.
