Well, this is unfortunate.

"Proton built Proton Meet to escape the CLOUD Act. They built it on CLOUD Act infrastructure. Their website promises "not even government agencies" can access your calls. The company routing them hands your call records to the [US] government when asked. Proton hid them from their privacy policy."

Proton Meet Isn't What They Told You It Was

Proton built Proton Meet to escape the CLOUD Act. They built it on CLOUD Act infrastructure. Their website promises "not even government agencies" can access your calls. The company routing them hands your call records to the government when asked. Proton hid them from their privacy policy.

I need to get off their email. I assume the feds get everything anywhere, but I read Proton's now using my inbox to train AI. No thanks. Do you have any recommendations?

Proton don't have access to your inbox. Don't trust everything you read on the Internet.

What about my sent folder?

@Uair All your email on Proton's servers are stored client side encrypted. They don't have the information needed to decrypt it.

Also, being owned by a Swiss non-profit means they can't lie about what they do or don't do since they would be shut down immediately by European - thus functioning - legal system.
