Sort of, the devil is in the details on this one. I'd recommend familiarizing yourself with the details and to clarify what you mean by "give up user information".
But yeah, remember that subject lines are ALWAYS in plaintext, and that they are required by law to log which IP address you are using to access their service.

IIRC the ProtonMail user would have been safe if they accessed the service via a VPN. Even if it was there own VPN product.
Swiss VPN providers can't log IP addresses.
At least this is how I remember it when that unfortunate shit show happened.

They don't have to give it but they definitely have it. There is no such things as "no logs VPN". There are always logs or team wouldn't be able to fix shit
