Nice, now de-Apple it
And then de-Proton it.
an imperfect ally is not an enemy
This right bloody here, you have to make sacrifices for peace-of-mind otherwise you’ll live your life paranoid on the smallest of things.
One persons opinions don’t suddenly make a service unusable or unreliable.
This is my thing. I've ditched all of proton for the obvious reason, but aside from that, I no longer want everything under one umbrella. Convenience has shown it comes at too great of a cost
Yes but it can also give you extra cost. Bundled services cost less than individual ones. For example Proton offers better value with their email and cloud than individual ones.
I was just about to pay for their service, started a new LLC so that was gonna be a good excuse to start supporting them and then his CEO shows his true colors.
I have been happily supporting Tuta instead. Is a bit slow but the aliases and emails work great.
Did the CEO do anything to bother you other than tweet that Slater was a good appointment by Trump? If not, can you explain what the problem is with Slater as a nominee?
When the CEOs political preferences get lousy enough or attracted as the necessary amount of attention to make it to a headline, some customers will turn away.
Maybe I'm misunderstanding, but the thing that bothers you about the CEO is that other people are annoyed by the CEO's tweet?
Edit: honestly I don't even understand what's politically problematic about his tweet. One of the few ways we can encourage the Dems to improve is by voicing our approval on when the GOP actually does something right.
I wonder how worrying about how others spend their money benefits you.
Edit: also not everyone in the world is American. Not everyone in the world sees the politics as a war of black vs white like you do of the 'Dems' vs the 'backWards'
I'm not American. Neither is the CEO. The tweet in question was about American politics.
And then de-Smart it.
I wish there wasn't a thing such as a 2G 3G shutdown so I can keep using a phone that needs to be charged weekly.
which of these are apple?
The iPhone
OH I misread the title. Of course hahah
