Fully comprised? Yeah... I don't think so. Adjust your expectations. Clearly this guy had the same delusion.

Privacy-focused email provider Proton Mail provided Swiss authorities with payment data that the FBI then used to determine who was allegedly behind an anonymous account affiliated with the Stop Cop City movement in Atlanta, according to a court record reviewed by 404 Media.

Proton is a company. They provide a good service. They will not protect you when the cops come knocking. Anything they have on you they will turn over. This is not new. It's not a reason to not use them. It's something to be aware of.

There are much more private ways this person could have used their service.

If you think anyone is gonna go to prison to protect your privacy... you are gonna have a rough time of it.

Are you a Libertarian?

Do you think the FBI should have the power to demand data from Swiss companies?

What if it was Chinese government agency that wanted this data?

Is the USA somehow exempt from any restrictions on state power projection?
