As someone who has recently started seeding as much as I can, this is a great question to which I don't have the answer.
I am not renewing my Proton yearly subscription after it ends due to recent developments. They seem to be the only "big name" VPN with the port forwarding feature. I heard of OpenVPN, but have not had a chance to dig into it too much.
My ISP does not provide IPV6 support, so this will be pretty important to sort out soon.
I seem to be out of the loop in regards to proton controversy and I haven’t found anything outstanding against them…
Can you help me understand what you’re specifically referring to? I’m a proton user… so kinda want to know lol
as far as I can tell their CEO is a semi alt right cunt. Apart from that everythin seems pretty okay and the recent shift to nonprofit status is cool
😂 does everything have to be political now? I don't care if the dude is a space alien who birthed Hitler, if the service is solid, I'm using it.
It has always been. FOSS is by itself political, just beyond the basic binary logic of left/right.
Your apoliticism is a political instance as well. Take for instance this quoute from Desmond Tutu "If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor."
I'm not saying you have to ditch Proton over their CEO's takes, my point is that thinking that everything suddenly became political is naive.
It's all so tiring
How do you think the people that are directly affected feel about it?
Nobody said trying to lead an ethical life was a vacation
Everything has always been political. Just because you're too privileged to notice that until someone mentions a viewpoint you dislike doesn't mean anything except that you're usually oblivious.
