The Proton thing once again teaches us that to put your moral faith in tech organizations of any kind is to beg for betrayal.
But at the same time, if there are no good options, we cannot use those choices to castigate our neighbors.
Use stuff. Don't use stuff. Be good to each other.

@mttaggart @Xavier Yup, regardless Andy and Proton have basically dug in as 'Trump is good for business' which is both a disgusting take and saying that Trump's misogynistic anti-lgbtq cabinet and bigoted plans are okay as long as its pro-business.
If it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck...
@mttaggart @Xavier I get that but where's the line Taggart? If Andy digs in further and decides 'You know what, because Trump is so good for business, we'll violate the privacy of certain users that Trump deems to be bad"
Because aligning with people like Trump is Red Flag. It doesn't stop there. It never does.
@mttaggart @Xavier Time will tell.
But given that Trump and the GOP are heavily anti-privacy, I suspect Andy is in for a rude awakening.
@CommieGIR @mttaggart Also, the reason that Trumpt was anti-big tech last term, is because they tried to fight him. Now they've all turned over. Now big tech can't wait to suck up to him.
Either way, I'll pull my spending with them today.
