Does Proton track its own VPNs? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

See title. A bit of a dumb question, but given my threat model, I'm curious if it's maybe strategically better to not rely on Proton for their VPN. If I rely too much on one provider, I think that that's not a good idea.

You just shared an article, not the audit.

True, I just thought it might be more useful to OP than just the PDF + all other audits are listed too.

My point is that sharing an article by an irrelevant third party spreading misinformation due commercial interest is not a good pratice.
