protonmail used to say this on their website and removed it after some people were arrested because they did provide logs to the french authorities.
the catch is that they didn't log by default but they had to log specific users due to a warrant.
the same will happen any service hosted by legal businesses.
- vineyardmike 5y agoCan't log specific users if you don't track who is who.
- lamontcg 5y ago> the catch is that they didn't log by default but they had to log specific users due to a warrant. that is a usable quantum bump up in privacy. requiring the authorities to specifically be investigating you, rather than you just being caught in a dragnet looking for someone to investigate.
