    I was looking at VPNs to use and liked how proton had the email and other features. Them supporting someone from Trump’s cabinet a few months back sort of killed that. This sealed it. Three strikes are not necessary.

      I bailed on them the minute they made that mistake. I had been very content with their service though less so with all of the new things they were rolling out like the crypto wallet, etc. I miss the convenience of everything in one place but it sounds like I ditched them at a good time.

        what are you using now? My wife and I struggle to find reasonably priced alternatives. We really only use it for email and password management.

          For a VPN? I use AirVPN but I think Mullvad and IVPN are generally considered best in class for privacy, all of which get down to $5/month depending on the plan you choose.

          For password manager I use Bitwarden, but they went through their own controversy a couple weeks ago, so.

          My current solution is mullvad vpn and Tuta with a custom domain for email. I didn’t use any of their other services despite having access.
