Note that this is a false statement. The cases such as this show that our encryption provides privacy by default: we are not able to provide any of the content stored encrypted on our servers to third-parties, even when presented with a data request we cannot legally contest. All we can provide is the limited data which we need to have anyway for the services to function. You can learn more in our Privacy Policy (https://proton.me/legal/privacy https://proton.me/legal/privacy), Threat model (https://proton.me/blog/protonmail-threat-model https://proton.me/blog/protonmail-threat-model, available publicly since the beginning), and in this support article: https://proton.me/support/proton-mail-encryption-explained https://proton.me/support/proton-mail-encryption-explained. You can also see in the Transparency report that we contest all of the legal requests we have any legal ground to contest. We are also working on improving the Swiss privacy legislation (which is already one of the strictest in the world) further - we won a major court case in 2021: https://proton.me/blog/court-strengthens-email-privacy https://proton.me/blog/court-strengthens-email-privacy.
