  • Honestly the jump to psyop just comes across someone too out of touch with reality to understand the fuck people are.

    Like mother fucker, what do you think is more likely. Lazy, depressed, and self-defeating people being tired and dooming? Or a coordinated psyop across the entire internet that lines up perfectly with the exact same shit people have been saying, doing and dooming about since the 1900s.

    Like get out of your house and talk to some normal people, you will realize this isn’t a psyop. People are ACTUALLY just that tired or stupid.

    That said there is obviously bots going around trying to influence things. But they are more just pushing people in directions they already lay.










  • Flexibility and diversification is annoying to manage but tends to be the best situation over all.

    Proton does things right generally speaking, it’s just ran by an absolute idiot.

    So you also have to weigh are your morals and expectations here reasonable to your own acceptance level. Vs your own requirements of the service at hand.

    There are plenty of reasons to need a VPN that the extra security and privacy guarantee are beyond worthless. And in those cases staying in proton doesn’t make since if your morals go against the company.

    While if you absolutely need that privacy and guarantee switching is a very real risk.

    Plenty of people like having privacy but for some it’s actively a life or death situation. So you have to make that call. Where do you sit on that spectrum, and are your morals important enough to take the risk if your on the extreme end?

    For most people who aren’t, switching is just a formality and technical consideration.







  • Its an explicitly worse alternative what are you on about. Its in a eyes country. Its literally an explicit step down on every level.

    The moment tuta goes to shit there is nothing stepping them from going all the way. At least with proton the legal requirements of the country they are in means that no matter what stupid shit the dickhead at the top does. They are REQUIRED to adhere to a minimum standard.

    Tuta has NO legal requirement to do that.

    If you remotely care about privacy and enforcement of the standard of care around it. Tuta is like one of the stupidest places you can go.


  • Problem is that any vpn not in switzerland is basically an explict step down. Trusting a company that is in a country that has no enforcement means your trusting the company it self entirely to stay honest. At least with proton, no matter what the idiots at the top want. They still have to comply with their local laws.

    That alone keeps proton above airVPN if your using a VPN for privacy reasons. It always will, no matter what. The entire country would have to change its laws for that to change.

    Now if your just using a VPN for routing purposes or something that security is not a high piro. Then air VPN is fantastic.
