@ohir @malwaretech I mean, the first link I found indicated that it is negotiable [ https://www.getyourlawyer.ch/en/lawyer/fees/ ], but I find it surprising that ProtonMail isn't paying for lawyers just as a cost of business. Maybe they don't have trial lawyers that are more expensive, but they couldn't as a Non-Profit find a lawyer to do it pro bono? This would be an amazing case for them, whether they won or not.

    @AT1ST @malwaretech They advertise confidentiality of the communication and that _only_ between INTERNAL (Proton) accounts. Nothing more, nothing less. Thats what they sell: c-o-n-f-i-d-e-n-t-i-a-l-i-t-y. For people who do not know how to read gnupg manual. All gui, easy to click. Then using money earned on their email product they provide more services that used properly _allow_ people to stay safe from being targeted way longer than any other service provider – and these they provide free. They explain the possibilities and explain threats. Problem is that many many many way so many people now just does not want to read before they click or tap. You can stay a bit, for a longer while, anonymous using Proton: you sign up for a free account using their free #vpn built into #vivaldi and never ever log in to this account not using vpn. Very simple. Not that you can use such account for a malicious public posting. When "imminent threat" is detected, esp. to some #EElite member, anyone on your packet way to the service will act to uncover you. Read the silk road story as a primer.
