I was curious about the suit by proton because I'm a user until I read authoritarian this democracy that .
Proton wants us to believe that corporations should be above nation states and national interests.
If country X deems a certain App as a security risk, it is not the work of apple or some vague state department funded organization to protest .
- BlackFly 1y agoProton is explicitly suggesting that a company can choose to help a government with an authoritarian agenda, so they agree with you that a company has no obligation to protest. They make no assertions as to whether corporations should be above nation states but they do wear their politics on their sleeve (that authoritarianism should be opposed). Their point is that they, as a separate company, can choose to object and attempt to offer products to help people evade authoritarianism and that Apple shouldn't be able to interfere with that in the US market in ways that they do. Obviously in the market of the authoritarian regime they can interfere, but that has no bearing to a US court.
