    The message by Andy Yen was stupid and worrying, but it was the endorsment of one decision by the Trump administration made by one member of the Proton team (an important one, sure, but just one). Going from that to “Proton endorsed the Republican party” is just not true.

    Andy Yen looked more naive than anything else to me.

      As “endorsement” means more or less “to support” or “to affirm” I don’t see the problem with my claim. But yeah, I could have been a little more precise :)

      A full statement that refers the unravelment in the US politics regarding big tech, by Yen as a person, would be nice.
