For some reason I have it in the back of my mind that they were at one point accused of being a honeypot for US intelligence because of their association with MIT. Probably complete BS, but maybe not. Are they as open source as they claim to be? Looks like they’re on github. F-Droid seems to think they have some Google libraries or whatever that they use.
ProtonMail users, how do you like/dislike it?
They don’t have to ignore it, just go to court to fight it. Apple has done this. To be clear I have no idea if they did or did not do that or what their chances of winning would be.
They only logged the IP. That’s metadata. IIRC Apple refused backdooring its phone encryption. That’s a lot more invasive.
They didn’t just log the IP, they provided it to French authorities.
like… yeah, no shit
it’s worth noting that protonmail has an onion and their clearnet server also accepts tor connections. So users can control the leakage of their IP… but only if they’re willing to solve countless CAPTCHAs.

Well I’m glad to see they contest at least some of them. That must cost them a fortune in legal fees to protest 7k orders/year.
