I don’t think that’s necessarily true. As I’ve explained in my comment on a different post, Proton relies heavily on the privacy community to attract new customers inside and outside their current user base.
How exactly am I BSing?
I don’t get your point. Is Standard Notes not a Proton product, despite it not being integrated? Am I not paying for 2 other Proton products that I can’t manage under the same account?
Because non-profits have never been shown to be corrupted in the history of humanity? Right. Proton is still a business. The Mozilla Foundation is also a non-profit and we still criticize many of their decisions. I really don’t understand your aggression.
Explain to me why it’s a bad idea to not allow users to pay for multiple Proton services under one account. As I pointed out, in both scenarios, Proton is getting my money.
You do realize that some people don’t live in the same city or country as their parents, or whoever their trustee might be, right?
Also, suppose your trustee creates a free Proton account, just for the purpose of being your trustee. They don’t use their account, and it remains inactive for over a year, which means Proton will automatically delete it. They miss the warnings, the account is gone, years go by, and something happens to you. Now what?
