This is INCREDIBLY BAD news. 😞
One of the reasons I really appreciated Proton (npub19kd…t56d) was precisely the fact that they were (a) a private company, and (b) had a simple free market relationship with its customers. I pay you, you provide me a good.
The shift to a non-profit "foundation" means that relationship is now broken. Proton's "customer" will NOW be whoever bankrolls the foundation, and *I* will become an annoying third party that has to be dealt with.
