ProtonMail appears to be secure so far but a couple of weeks ago there were some accusations levelled against ProtonVPN by PIA. While a lot of it was debunked but anyone pursuing the thread would be left with a bit of cynicism. But here’s the caveat, no matter how transparent they are or how many white papers they publish, there’s no way to verify what is actually behind the hosted service. If your threat model includes a nation state then anything short of self-hosting would be risky. If your threat model involves getting away from google and trackers then it should be safe bet. For that matter even other providers like Fastmail or Zoho would be a good choice.
