Believing in any way that Republicans are helping out the little guy or against big business is so ridiculous I have to believe this is willful ignorance to cover up the fact that a lot more people will need VPNs with all the porn bans and other privacy nightmares the right will pass the next few years.

So we're keeping Lina Kahn, right? RIGHT?

Thank you for using a less charged title in the cross-post. It's concerning stuff coming from the Proton CEO and Andy Yen using the official account to amplify it. However, I disagreed with it being characterized as "Full MAGA".

Wait until Big Tech does something and then Proton will cry about it. They'll be in for a shocking surprise that Big Tech does what Big Tech did because Trump and Republicunts allowed it to happen.

Anyone notice Trump clearly didn't write that, because it's clearly written? Remember how bugfuck he was getting over the last year and how we rarely see that anymore?

Just how bugfuck is he now and who's controlling him?

The most interesting part of this take is that JD Vance is very much in the big tech friends circle with Thiel and Musk. But I'm sure they can run some antitrust against their enemies at Google or whatever

How tall is Andy Yen?

Wow, I was considering switching to that from Mailfence but maybe not. Maybe I will look at the other options or sit still to see what happens over the next 30 days.
