There was a bomb threat email sent by one of the proton mail users to South Indian state’s TN, some weeks ago.
There was a big turmoil in 4-5 different schools in the city. Until the time they realised it to be a fake threat it was a nightmare. Some of my relatives were directly affected.
What’s the privacy crap we talk here?
- tjpnz 3y agoThe authorities still have a choice in how they respond to it.
- arvindkumarc 3y agoThe problem is still not supported by proton and team.
- synicalx 3y agoProton very clearly states they will happily comply with law enforcement requests, IF it comes from the country they operate in.
- arvindkumarc 3y ago“If it comes from the country that they operate in. “ How’s that for privacy?
- tjpnz 3y agoWhat about privacy? Your whole argument seems to be that nobody deserves it.
- protonmail 3y agoNote that, at Proton, we are resolutely against the use of Proton services for purposes that are contrary to Swiss law (Proton is a Swiss company). The issue you're mentioning has been raised to the attention of the Swiss federal authorities, who have been in contact with the relevant Indian authorities.

- cobbzilla 3y agoBad people can phone in anonymous threats. or send postal mail. This is not a new problem, no need to drop privacy rights.
- arvindkumarc 3y agoYou can always trace the numbers and postal mails in this age.
- synicalx 3y agoI put a mask on, and pay in cash at a public phone. How would you trace me?
- arvindkumarc 3y agoSo techically you agree that it’s no different from using proton? Coming back to the question, the roads you travel, the vehicle you commute are all under constant surveillance, FYI.
