i never used proton. not because i had secret knowledge about them or saw some hint of what was to come, but because once i realized that the privacy of my communications was important to me, the only answer was to self host.

i understand this isnt possible for everyone. we all must do our own risk assessment, etc. etc.

but somebody else's computer will always be somebody elses computer. and sometimes that means shitheads will violate your trust.

@nolan tbf my own stupidity, tiredness or overconfidence sometimes violates my trust as well, but that at least only screws myself over I guess
