OpenAI was also non-profit and sure as shit wasn't living up to its name of being open in any way. Then it became for-profit in late 2025 because it could, and also money.

Do you think there's something snowflake-level special preventing Proton from doing the same fucking thing? It's a corporation trying to make money; non-profit may be used to grift popularity or grassroots support.

If Proton is special and impossible to follow a similar trajectory after enough people use/are locked into their ecosystem, please share with us what your logic would be that would protect us from this. (Hint: you can't)
