  • For me, their “explanation” is pure nonsense

    It’s badly written imo. There are 2 implicit informations:

    • proton couldn’t give them anything else
    • the ip was not used to track them anyway (yes it’s cringe to say but i mean I’m not Andy Chen nor the people who proof checked the post lol)

    there are some providers that I don’t use

    Ye, I’m asking to know which provider you use that does not comply with local law

    sorry for making false promises

    Promises were never false. They did not track ip and they don’t. They had to start for that specific user after the order…

    It’s more like “we didn’t add extra clauses to our statements to make it clearer from start that bla bla bla”.

    Marketing can be useful for a lot of reasons but it should never take the place of education. And vice versa.


  • Proton gave the IP address, person got arrested is the story I know and it’s the one presented in the euronews article

    The euro news article also links the French source and they say that a lot of the work was analyzing photos on Instagram

    What a weird statement to make to justify giving up an IP address

    Cmon… It’s a sentence linked to the next one. They are not using that as a way to justify anything, they just explained how ip was “enough”.

    I totally don’t trust them.

    Not that you would need trust. Just use tor or a vpn if you need to hide ip while doing stuff you know police is interested in…

    I wonder which email provider you are using right now after being so confindent :P
