I love Proton Privacy as a company, and most of their products.

However, I hate their current SoMe campaign of just ranting and bashing on every other company out there. It’s so negative.

Is more negativity really what we need? Can’t you just be positive and talk about all your good stuff - are you 100% sure the only way to grow is to do negative campaigns on everyone else?

I’d really love for you to be different ❤️

      I have, unfortunately. The web site gives me obtrusive indismissable popups sometimes (in Firefox with uBO), and I’ve seen promotions within the Proton VPN app itself, which is something other Unlimited subscribers have experienced as well, though not all of us, for some confusing reason.

      I made a post about it not long ago.

      I followed them on Instagram for some reason 😅 I want to support them, but I don’t really like their message.

      They also do it on their Mastodon account.
