    if you’ve done nothing wrong

    Through who’s lens?

    When a person is raped and seeking an abortion from Texas, do they deserve to be stripped of privacy? What about countries that see being gay a crime?

    I don’t particularly care about proton outing people, but they should absolutely be restricted from advertising that they’re more private or secure than any other provider out there.

      In the US right now, we’re seeing this unfold. With the talk about classifying transgender folks as nihilistic violent extremists, who fucking knows.

        When freedom of speech breaks down, and the government is logging / tracking all social media on the front end and back end AND private communication tools are under attack, nothing is really safe anymore. Most disturbingly, once they deem X or Y to be unlawful, if you’ve EVER talked about X or Y, you’re at risk.
