The initial post could just be chalked up to naivety if we’re feeling charitable, but using the official proton accounts for this stuff is an extremely bad move. Then half-assedly retracting it without acknowledging he posted it, doubling down, and making every classic PR mistake. Aside from potential capitulation to a regime that clearly values power more than human rights, there’s significant risk from a person with such bad judgement having apparently no safeguards or second opinions when he’s posting. What other decisions is he unilaterally making for proton that aren’t publicly known?
