Just tell Modi that Proton’s CEO is a Trump endorser.
This is a great ad to use proton!
How? You can access it through Tor and other proxies.
Not sure I’m not Indian. But we should see it as a war against encryption
It kind of is war against encryption. I generally say western media covers Indian government in unfair bad light, but this is exactly the type of bad light coverage I support. Call out the actual stupidity from the government.
Its usually somehow possible to evade such bans, but not every citizen knows about proxies and how to properly use them. So reducing its accessibility certainly hurts India.

Very interesting. Im fortunate in that, Im not in a country that (so far) has not banned a technology I’m using. But definitely, people will always find a way to circumvent a ban.
No need for anything extra proton already comes with alternate routing
When Russia sought to ban PM in their country they used the same excuse as India (fake bomb threats). However, understanding that this can be done via different email services, just underlines that Russia and India are scared of their citizens taking their privacy back and perhaps even organizing.
They even tried to restrict VPN companies by passing a bill that forces them to keep logs. Proton was one of the companies that packed up and left. Good VPN companies don’t have servers in India.

They’re far from being the sole countries scared about citizens safekeeping any semblance of online privacy (hi from France, EU)
Sorry to hear about France. It’s really worse in France regarding your freedom online. Ironically.
We need to make tech that is useful for overthrowing dictatorships
Another reason to use proton
I like it. This means that Proton actually works and they have no way to steal your information.
Right. Couldn’t ask for a better endorsement. Especially since the company has been taking a lot of Ls recently.
India blocking a Nazi service is a win.
Can you explain? I thought Proton was a good service due to their VPN and such.
The company seems fine but I think they’re referring to the pro-Trump comments the CEO made.
There was a mistake in that comment afaik. It was something where context was missing from the picture which you could have seen on twitter and understand that the CEO is not pro- Trump
He got on his knees… Andy doesn’t understand his user base if he thought sucking the new admins dick was gonna get him anywhere with the typa person who would pay for proton lol
“Leadership” 🤡
But sure normies shilling Nazi shite is disingenuous
You can have your own opinion but remember that you dont need to be that rude to others
Lol wat?
Are these ceo tears?!
Proton edited and deleted some of their responses because it made them look even worse. You can find one here: https://archive.ph/quYyb
Complete delusion believing Trump will “stand up for the little guy”. The GOP is the party that gutted net neutrality after all. They had the Chevron doctrime overturned. The Thiel-Musk funded party standing up for “little tech”? Please.
The CEO tried to spin it off as “missing context” but the responses show he’s either completely delusional, has been comatose for the past two decades or is just pro-Trump. I can’t look inside his head, but his tacit endorsement of the party actively dismantling US democracy is not something that can really “lack context”.
Proton, the company, has donated to liberal parties. The CEO seems to be a bit more of the “libertarian” type, that doesn’t seem to mind everything the GOP did in the past years.
Fair
Proton is also a great service.
What the heck are you talking about?
He isnt pro- Trump and neither a Nazi.
Go research again, it was just a comment with removed context
How can a service be a Nazi even? Can emails be racist nowadays?
India is bad
India is actually awesome Mohdi on the other hand……
*Modi. But yes … he’s kind of a snowflake. Never had a press conference in 11 years, except when he was forced to outside India.
I bet he uses the nothing to hide nothing to fear line all the time though, just not for himself.

This was all before the India strikes (and possibly WW3)… Well I stay with what I said.
India is now not only blocking Protonmail now of course, but also media outlets as well now: https://lemmy.ml/post/29742863
Narendra Modi started with this conflict as the aggressor.
WW3 isn’t going to happen. If you had known anything about the India-Pak conflict, you wouldn’t have said that. Look up Pulwama, 2019 and Kargil War.
The official reason was false bomb threats that happened months ago in some schools in Delhi and other places. Completely unrelated to the conflict in Pahalgam or the strikes in Pakistan and Pakistan Administered Kashmir. The rest is far too ignorant to respond to. See my comment here and do some research. Either way, idgaf. Please don’t ping me again. I’d much rather talk about it with fellow Indian leftists than with people with no understanding of India or Pakistan.
Hopefully it will not ending up in a WW3 then.
Ah sorry I thought there was an h in there. Most right wingers are the biggest fucking snowflakes, they sure know how to dish it out but can’t take any.
true… but at the same time India is slowly following China & Russia in terms of their human rights, privacy violation and “open” internet (closed).
Yes Mohdi is a typical strong man idiot.
Screw India, one of the worst countries in the world.
Governments*
Right, thanks for correcting.
