No matter who someone is, don’t give them all of your personal property.
I use Protonmail from Proton. That’s it.
How do you manage to keep your PGP keys locally with Protonmail?
It’s hilarious that OP thought going full in o proton is the other end of the “I love privacy” spectrum. How the fuck are you here on lemmy and that uneducated and ignorant on all this? These are two people a couple of steps away from each other on one end, not even close to what the meme actually is. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if this was rage bait, because it’s dumb enough to be that. Or a proton shill, which definitely exists here.
We all know privacy is purple, we just can’t agree on the exact shade.
One day account with only one post, from someone who probably never hosted mails 😂
What is that cat-owl thing for?
That’s Luma, Proton’s LLM chatbot.
Real privacy starts when you check app permissions and stop giving flashlight apps your location.
Amateurs, I bet neither of them even knows about Qubes OS
Imagine paying anything for proton services.
privacy
is a webapp
???
I mean, I still pay for my proton VPN and feel guilty every time I use Google to search for something, but even so, if the government wants to see what you’re up to, they can just send you a text and gain access to your phone, including encrypted messages, without you even clicking on a link.

Spyware delivered by text In August, the Trump administration revived a previously paused contract with Paragon Solutions, an Israeli-founded company that makes spyware. A Paragon tool called Graphite was used in Europe earlier this year to target journalists and civil society members, according to The Citizen Lab, a research group based at the University of Toronto with expertise in spyware.
Little is known about how ICE is using Paragon Solutions technology and legal groups recently sued DHS for records about it and tools made by the company Cellebrite. ICE did not respond to NPR’s questions about its Paragon Solutions contract and whether it is for Graphite or another tool.
Graphite can start monitoring a phone — including encrypted messages — just by sending a message to the number. The user doesn’t have to click on a link or a message.
“It has essentially complete access to your phone,” said Jeramie Scott, senior counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center (EPIC), a legal and policy group focused on privacy. “It’s an extremely dangerous surveillance tech that really goes against our Fourth Amendment protections.”
Gonna be fun when a third party gets ahold of that one.
It is software created by a private company, so technically isn’t the government already the 3rd party? Honestly at this point, I am not sure I could trust anyone to have that kind of surveillance overreach any less than the Nazis running the federal government.
Not to say that I would trust a private company any more. Just to clarify everything is fucking garbage and society is on the brink of complete collapse, and once that happens I guess it really doesn’t matter who has access to my SSN, banking information, health conditions, or embarrassing browser history.
Likely Palantir and our self appointed Lord and savior Peter Thiel will arrange to have all of that information available on everyone with one convenient click of a button for anybody who can pay for it. Like those reports you can buy online about people’s public records, except it includes everything we used to consider protected information back in olden times. Before we started making all this progress.
Yeah, you aren’t wrong. I guess I was more thinking along the lines of EternalBlue and North Korea.
Just reading about the proton case
so is it that in the Spanish case they were using an iCloud recovery account?
Love it if these memes involved context
Buy an ad.
The joke is on you here. Proton is a locked-in CIA honeypot and everybody knows it.
Any evidence to this?

I trust you bro
Trust you too
Coming from an Agent I’ll trust it
We’re actually called officers
If they would truly care about privacy they would promote open protocols, auditable code and encourage users to hold their own keys, instead of storing the keys of their users and shipping their code dynamically via JavaScript.
Their entire technology stack is built in a way to be able to target individual users.
That is not answering the question.
If there would be hard evidence they would be out of business already, so obviously no.
Proton? The bitcoin company?
No thanks. Fuck them.
hey Peter Griffin, explain the joke.
