Russia has been bombing Ukraine for 4 years now, killing thousands, after it already attacked and illegally annexed a large chunk of the country in 2014.

People adding disinfo to community maps is maybe the least important act of warfare that could possibly prolong it.

That an edited timeline that leaves out many of his Reddit comments, but it still doesnt paint him in a good light.

Everything he said about the Trump admin was wrong flat out, and not once has he acknowledged it. A very convenient stance he took, praising them and now opting to "not say anything." Its almost like that just leaves the praise of the GOP with no rebuttal from Proton.

Turns out lots of people can be shitty at once.

It also wasent a single tweet. It was tweets/comments plural, with him also talking about how the GOP was immune from the influence of big tech (ultra mega LOL) and would take them to task (a stunningly, knee slappingly stupid statement), that the GOP was the new "party of the little guy (holy fucking shit was that tone deaf)," then him using right wing phrasing and talking points to defend himself before finally defaulting to the same defense as Mullvad just did. "We are a political company that should not say political things, I.e. we have shitty political opinions that will cost us money once people find out about them so we will shut up now."

The proton CEO has not once apologized or said he was wrong about the Trump admin, even after they fired Gail Slater in the first year, the person he praised in his first effusive tweet about how great the incoming Trump admin was.

That basically how trains work in Copenhagen. They use small, automated trains that come every couple of minutes. You just wander to the station and get on, no planning or anything.

"On by default unless you run down a setting buried in a menu" is the thinnest type of optional in computing.
