• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Proton Mail Suspended Journalist Accounts At Request Of Cybersecurity Agency⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Important details from the Reddit comment:

  Hi everyone,

  No, Proton did not knowingly block journalists’ email accounts. Our support for journalists and those working in the public interest has been demonstrated time and again through actions, not just words.

  In this case, we were alerted by a CERT that certain accounts were being misused by hackers in violation of Proton’s Terms of Service. This led to a cluster of accounts being disabled.

  Because of our zero-access architecture, we cannot see the content of accounts and therefore cannot always know when anti-abuse measures may inadvertently affect legitimate activism.

  Our team has reviewed these cases individually to determine if any can be restored. We have now reinstated 2 accounts, but there are other accounts we cannot reinstate due to clear ToS violations.

  Regarding Phrack’s claim on contacting our legal team 8 times: this is not true. We have only received two emails to our legal team inbox, last one on Sep 6 with a 48-hour deadline. This is unrealistic for a company the size of Proton, especially since the message was sent to our legal team inbox on a Saturday, rather than through the proper customer support channels.

  The situation has unfortunately been blown out of proportion without giving us a fair chance to respond to the initial outreach.

  Yeah, he owned it and made it work. I agree it’s one of, if not the most, honest of all his songs in the show.

  Plus the people in the pærk are like family so it’s all water under the fridge.

  What the hell does he know about real life and disadvantages? I’ll be without them for life. At least anything Meta or the like have a hand in. Poor me. 😄

  May North Korea (or anyone really) steal every bit of it. They pulled off the largest single bitcoin heist so far earlier this year. How difficult could this bozo’s crypto be for them?

  With all the price hikes because of pointless tariffs it’s not doable to pay taxes to the government.

  They may be Lieutenant Colonial’s in the eyes of the Army Reserves but they’ll always be Major Assholes to me.
