Wait - so this is the CCP directly censoring a whole worldview from its citizens.

But I was told on several lemmy threads that the CCP lets their users consume any content, and all the censorship is American propaganda to make the great leader look bad.

Why is it a different product then? Does it allow the same content? Same algorithm?

Or is it different, and not an actual carbo copy?

I imagine you find comfort in such a simple worldview

Oh sweet summer child - you are about to see what “friendly” really is

Sounds like an euphemism to a call from Trump or Likud nuts

Not if Trumpy has a say in it…

Thank you.

I think I remember it was when Proton complied with Swiss subpoena and provided user account info requested by US. I clarified my nebulous comment in another thread here.

That makes sense, thank you. Clarified my nebulous comment a bit in another thread.

That all makes sense.

I did some digging to see what was that I had read, and I think it was a case a few years back of Proton complying with a Swiss subpoena requested by US, investigating death threats to Fauci. Proton disclosed (limited) information about the account that sent those emails.

I think because Proton promised complete privacy, and did provide user information, it ended in my brain as “Proton is not as private as they tout it to be”.

I am not advocating for protections of highly illegal acts, but since:

1. PGP encryption is only good if both ends use keys, and
2. Proton complies with Swiss law requests

I stored Proton in my “Marketing bullshit” cabinet and never opened an account. Other than not selling my info to advertisers, it seems the same as Apple email, for example.

I think this is spot on for many
