A great Medium article on the topic that analyzes the entire situation: (coming to the conclusion that no, Proton does not really seem to be in favor of Trump/MAGA at all given their actual actions, and how the original statement was misinterpreted)
He’s weirdly a MAGA Trump supporter and publicly supporting them from the official Proton account, despite not being an American citizen. It’s a crazy take, but he is a CEO, so those kind of people stick together.
Honestly person users deserve whatever they get for supporting that weirdo ceo

What if maga align with you instead?
Because this what happen to proton ceo. Proton appreciate anti big tech, trump start some anti big tech stuff, now elect anti big tech ftc person.
Proton need to be pro big tech or are nazi?
The fact that this article had to be written in the first place is the dealbreaker for me
So fact that people misinterpret and misinform other dealbreaker for correct information?
You definitely antivax and probably flat earther.
Definitely not, but ok. You seem very upset about this. Hope you feel better
The fact you need correct this is dealbreaker to me.

Is this referring to anything beside his tweet in Jan?
I believe the tweet was from December, but this article has the timeline.

Yeah, let’s wait till we find out that they actually can and do unencrypt our data.
What could go wrong?
