The industry betrayed consumers' trust to the point where no project can be trusted to be mindful of data anymore. Even Proton Mail ended up ratting to the French, and that was just IP and session info, so who can we even trust to get "good telemetry"?
- jeffbee 1y agoI don't think it is common to refer to server logs as "telemetry".

- aspenmayer 1y agoOr they architect their system better so that they never collect the IP addresses to begin with. I think Privacy Pass and other things Mullvad is doing help in this area, but I am not aware of Proton working with them to implement anything like this. But Proton should do this, because it’s relevant to customers of Proton. https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/privacy-pass-the-new-protocol-for-private-authentication/26882 https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/privacy-pass-the-new-pro... Apparently not Privacy Pass related, will keep looking as I seem to remember that Mullvad was doing that implementation, but I may remember incorrectly. https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/mullvad-has-partnered-with-obscura-vpn/24860 https://discuss.privacyguides.net/t/mullvad-has-partnered-wi...
- some_random 1y agoLogs aren't telemetry and calling a response to a court order "ratting out" is exactly the kind of behavior that makes people increasingly skeptical of privacy advocates.
