I think what your are trying to say is primarily a whataboutism, and I'm going to guess that no good faith argument will make you want to dig deeper into the company's choices beyond the tweet -which you'll note he has not, to my knowledge, disavowed.

Sure the comment made the biggest splash, cause all these fuckers think their untouchable, but clearly Yan listens to his PR handlers so he's not going to damage the brand further. At some point you should look at the progressive business choices they've been making over the past few years and you'll see the same pattern used by the FAAMG -or BATX or FAANG or GAFAM- (aggressive acquisitions; more and more proprietary; overt political maneuvers), they are the definition of the enshitification that leads to anti consumer practices. We should be better than this.

So no, he didn't help elect a despot ( we did that on our own) and no Yan isn't funding terrorists (although I don't know his ties to Prism/Pegasus or Palantir? And pretty sure NSA is cool with him, given he only has beef with Switzerland). Regardless, all these shit headss are definitely not helping.

Its actually impressive that Proton went the Google full circle of 'do no evil' to removing that adage in less than five years.

Anyways, enjoy your Proton, bud, you won whatever argument you needed to make, I personally won't be convinced to fund Proton again without a leadership change -and probably not even then.

Be happy with your loved ones this holidays week, take care.
