    @anonymous comment still stands. Your previous comment doesn’t indicate how he is incorrect, if that is what you’re suggesting.

      He doesn’t have to be incorrect in order for people to feel betrayed by his comments. The commenter was answering the question of why people felt betrayed. Demonstrating the incorrectness of the CEO’s take is out of scope.

      (Although, he definitely is also incorrect. Republicans love corporations and monopolies even more than Democrats do. They’re slightly more nationalistic about it though, which is the only reason they ever make noises to oppose corporations that aren’t sufficiently US-owned.)

        I think the “he” there was @anonymous@lemm.ee, not the CEO of Proton.

        The comment from anonymous implied that there was no real betrayal. Just because someone fights for digital privacy does not mean he’s on the same side for other topics. Feeling betrayed and actually being betrayed are not the same thing.
