On the one hand, this is kind of an ad for Proton, but OTOH it's quite correct: https://proton.me/blog/trump-controls-nsa-fbi

tl;dr -- Trump now controls the levers for spying on Americans, and those go deep. Every major US-based service -- not just the obvious "bad guys" like Xitter and FB but also things like Discord and Google -- can and will report anything you say to the government when asked.

So if you want privacy, you need strong encryption and a non-US company - keep that in mind…

@jducoeur Funny to see this after Proton's CEO was sucking up to Trump on Twitter and then the official Proton account chimed in with pro-Republican messaging: https://archive.ph/LlbSj

Wonder what's going on inside Proton.
