Comment on Is Framework an ethical company?
wavebeam@lemmy.world 2 weeks agoThis was shitty, but my actual problem with Proton is their lean into crypto wallets and showing that they are willing to bend over for the police, which kinda make their entire differentiation as a “secure” platform entirely moot.

Are they “bending” more than what they are legally required to? Their model is that they cannot provide content if it was end-to-end encrypted, even if they were forced they just can’t. If someone pays for their account with a credit card that’s information they can be forced to give. I haven’t heard that they have gone beyond that and willingly given information. I don’t think we can blame a company for not breaking the laws of the country they operate in.

Even offering that concession, which I don’t, that doesn’t excuse the crypto wallet.
