I've had pretty good experiences with Protonmail, though some of my network seemed to melt down that I was questioning their integrity that I felt protecting against them abusing their access would be necessary to ensure I could find stable employment. (I like the encryption at rest which relies on a key of my choosing, paired with MFA to log in.) I still maintain I was correct in my choice, and correct that I was retaliated for attempting to "take my business elsewhere". I had issues porting out a Google Voice number, and had a few other issues that in parallel with my interactions with individual Googlers and ex-Googlers left me feeling pretty unsafe. I like that Proton encrypts at default, doesn't embed ads (so no excuses wrt to targeted ads, malicious JS, etc), and while Switzerland is not a place you can break the law with impunity, I enjoy knowing my enemies can file an MLAT[1] if they want to invade my privacy moving forward. (And conversely, if it's not serious enough for them to "come back with a warrant" across internation lines, then they can just learn to not be such nebby little jagoffs[2] after years of legally protected ratfuckery[3][4]. (My email is this handle's name at protonmail dot ch, email me if you want -- I'll either reply, or set up a filter, but I very rarely block absent a lack of storage, so be careful!)
