Exactly my point.

Considering Porton AG is owned by a foundation it is harder for the CEO to get rich of it so Ill just wait and see what happens

They don’t have that power even if they seem to think so

There is still no proof that they aren’t complying with their own privacy standerds. Just because the CEO is a dick doesn’t mean the entire company has to be a dick. If everything is properly arranged the CEO shouldn’t even be arranged to push things that go against the believes and statements of the company in the situation of an European company with the structure of Proton.

Currently I am unable to switch anyway due to time restrains and such, so I am just gonna see if we hear anything about the next audit regarding privacy.

“one year only then full price”

You can say what you want, but this is mostly the norm with subscriptions. Not only that but legally they can often index the price as well. I haven’t seen a single subscription in Europe that keeps Grandfathering prices with the exception of Old School Runescape where people claim it.I haven’t verified it

This is where audits come into place. Currently Proton only made the result of their security audit public, but you can also get an accounting firm to audit the privacy statement. Not endorsing them or anything, but PureVPN has been audited by iirc Deloitte on their privacy statement. I have verified this a couple year by then sharing the conclusion of the report from Deloitte with signature.

Proton should do something similar and yearly and could have a lot more faith in them. An accountant isn’t going to risk his career for something like Proton’s privacy statement. At least I would hope not

The Porton Foundation is also the majority owner of the company these days which makes it a bit harder to do whatever you wish with the company

It does make sense that a country located in Switzerland has this type of being “neutral”, it’s seems very similar to what the country was doing in WW1 and WW2.

Anyway, I’ll be keeping my Proton account. It works pretty well and I have more faith in the laws in Switzerland than in the EU. Saying that I still have more faith in the EU than the rest of the world if it comes to privacy. If anything changes in the future I’ll be moved in about an hour or two.

Yeah NVIDIA is a bullshit company and has been for a while. AMD and Intel need to get their raytracing game up so they become a real competitor for NVIDIA especially now when there are more games that require raytracing.

You can buy office separately these days again. Not sure if Libreoffice is feature complete these days, but last time I tried it, it was missing a lot of the more advanced featureslike Solver/Powerquery/certain advanced formulas.

I recommend it for everybody and if it is not for you, you wil realise it in a couple of minutes of working with it if you are a oower user

Meanwhile in the rest of the world the news was flooded with information surrounding Trump. It’s a weird time we live in.

When they helped ending the second world war. We in Europe will forever be grateful that the US (and the other countries) helped us end the war.

Amazon has always been worse for me in terms of delovery times and service anyway. I only order shit there that I otherwise need to get from Aliexpress or whatever

The weird this is that generally the once with shit quality make a decent profit and a lot of the once with way better food make almost nothing.
