It’s always nice to see companies claiming to care about privacy walking the walk. In this case, all the way out of Switzerland.
walking the walk
But they haven’t?
yeah, so far this is just talking the talk. but with a bit of luck we may not need to see them walking the walk
I would hope Switzerland isnt stupid enough to do this. Their reputation as a country is based around trust. Dozens of highly profitable privacy based companies would be forced to relocate.
While these companies make up a very small percentage of the GDP, they’d take people out of work, hurt their reputation, and take a minor blow to their budget.
Though, this isnt considering future prospects; the Proton suite is getter better, fast. It wouldn’t surprise me, if in a few years, their suite could rival Google’s or Microsoft’s.
It could be very profitable in the future, but kneecapping the VPN would really slow things down.
The bill did not pass in the first stage of the law making process as all the political parties rejected it. Also, I’m very certain that even if it passed the first few hurdles, someone would make an initiative against it and that initiative would win 9 out of 10 times as most Bünzlis are serious about their privacy and would feel like their freedoms are being taken away by such a law.
Can we have technology that’s secure enough that it doesn’t matter what country we are in?
I am using them while I wait for Tuta drive. Tuta better hurry up.
I heard Trump in the US is doing loads of good stuff about big tech’s power; they should move there.
A mandatory backdoor would ruin the purpose of most security but a VPN that doesn’t do VPN is just a security theater like NordVPN to some extent is just a security theater.
