Lying to laymen about security is morally wrong. The security guarantees protonmail claims to provide literally cannot be guaranteed.
And for the record, I wrote my comments on "Hacker" News, not in my local newspaper. The readers here are not "most people" and I can expect many more of them to have similar values to me.
- deftnerd 8y agoBeing unable to prove a companies claims yourself != company lieing. A year ago, they posted on Reddit: "Audits have been done, about one per year usually. Cyberkov has done 3 audits since 2014 (they recommend it for their activities with Palestinian activists, so security audits are necessary)" Do you claim that the independent security firm Cyberkov is lying too? With the preponderance of evidence they've provided (security audits, open source, and transparency into how everything works), if you're saying that this is a big scam and they're lying about everything, it's really up to you now to provide some evidence.
