> It’s interesting how many “privacy focused” companies tout being based in Switzerland as some big badge of honor, which a layman consumer such as myself is supposed to be really impressed by due to the overall reputation of “Swiss privacy laws.” I believe it comes about due to the old trope of Swiss banks being the most secure places to hide money, which of course is not true and hasn't been for a long time. Even in that period, I am sure they complied with Interpol/Europol requests to divulge account details of evil masterminds with a beeellion dollars hidden away in a Swiss vault.
