I would _never_ trust anything *proton. They hide behind Swiss law but will cave to any serious American request for info.

      You probably shouldn't be posting on HN.

        I understand what this site is about so no issue here.

          Michael? Perhaps you shouldn't trust this site, it's all randoms just like anywhere.

      You should probably go hide in your safe room just in case there is a squad of Spetsnaz driving to your location to fake your death.

  Not true. I’m a cyber lawyer. Having subpoenaed them in a civil case for a major energy company, which eventually had a criminal element and FBI involvement, I can tell you that basically told me and the FBI to fuck off.

    Nice! Can you share details? News pieces? Their reply?

  That's not true. Caving to an American request without judicial approval from Swiss authorities is actually illegal.
