PROTONMAIL COMPROMISED
Another one bites the dust. Proton Mail is compromised. Revealed user data thus negating their mandate. Adjust accordingly. pic.twitter.com/989SQB67o2

PMAN EDIT:
This is the response from Protonmail. Remeber, your OPSEC is only as strong as your weakest link.
The name/address of the terrorism suspect was actually given to police by Apple, not Proton. The terror suspect added their real-life Apple email as an optional recovery address in Proton Mail. Proton can’t decrypt data, but in terror cases Swiss courts can obtain recovery email.

I wrote my comments on the X forum you provided. People are saying protonmail is strong. BS. They say no logs stored. One needs a passkey phrase to recover a protonmail acct. NOT a recovery email. They use PGE for encryption, which has had a back door since version 6 required by US Gov’t. Also, emails from Protonmail are only encrypted end to end if the recipient also has Protonmail. People look at https://sekur.com/, recommended by Epoch Times.
