That's why I'm leaving proton and it's community. Lots of drama and political shit that I don't want to know, not to mention the whole thing where proton from just an email provider, now sells VPN and other services l.

I can TASTE the prompt from this image
The Proton founder is Pro MAGA that should be the end of it for most of you. I'm never going to leave Njalla for my VPN needs
unfortunately, a lot of us need more than vpn and proton has a full suite.
While I agree that the response is heavily AI generated, I have to disagree that he's pro-Maga. He reached out to both democrats and republicans to talk about the importance of privacy and the democrats turned him down (or entirely ignored him) while the republicans met with him.
He then went on Xitter to shame the Dems and said that the Republicans seemed to be the party caring about privacy.
He's definitely a dumbass for trying to play it that way, but he did not come out in support of Maga.
He was not pro maga just because he could gain an audience with GOP members but not dems on a lobbying trip. There has never been a single shred of evidence showing he is pro maga, and at this point I'm just going to assume it's a smear campaign against a Google competitor.
Change my mind. I dare anyone to show the proof.
"You are right to raise this and we want to address this directly"
Isnt that how Claude Sonnet or Opus writes?
It's PR language, doesn't matter if this is written by a human or AI. Message is what it is.
I am out of the loop it seems. What happened ?
Proton sponsored afar-right fascist influencer, then issued apologies and ended the sponsorship after they got found out.
They screwed up, admitted it, apologized, don't see why people are calling for blood anymore. People are allowed to make mistakes, they owned it and they cut ties with the guy.
Are you new to the internet?
They keep making right wing mistakes though. I think that points to something.
