~~helped FBI~~ adhered to Swiss legal requirements
Are you guys expecting companies to break the laws of their own countries on your behalf?
Nah, just expecting honest, straightforward marketing.
Here's an example:
Hey we do E2EE and shit, but if you pay us for it, and the US government gets mad at you, we'll fuck you.
There, see?
Honest, simple.
So, from your perspective, all companies should include, in their marketing campaigns, that they wont break the law for you? lol
When their marketing is based on privacy, they need to be honest that they're not going to be private.
I recall other companies using "canaries" to help their customers know that they had been compromised by the government but were legally not allowed to talk about it.
They’ve never had a true Warrant Canary. They have however always posted an annual Transparency Report on their blog. Where they reference they advise by Swiss Law. https://proton.me/legal/transparency
