Instead of leaving Xitter, they left Mastodon. Proton’s trend is not inspiring confidence and this feels like another step backwards.

    That statistic isn’t particularly useful. They complied with requests, but their response might have been “We don’t know anything.”

    The only thing they can provide in regards to email is an IP address, which can be circumvented by using the VPN, which doesn’t log IP addresses. You obviously shouldn’t have a recovery email on your account, so they can’t provide that.

    In my case, I couldn’t care less if they provided my IP address. I’m not doing anything illegal, I just prefer my email to be stored encrypted so server admins can’t read it.
