I have been using Proton only as a burner email service, but I’ve been intrigued about signing up for the paid version to get a few more of those with less restrictions.
I currently use a different VPN provider for my personal devices, and that’s been fine. But I’m sharing some of my device slots with someone else.
Suppose I get a Proton subscription - would I be able to share device slots with someone without granting them access to the drive/emails etc? Obviously I can tell them “Hey I logged you in, don’t mess with the settings or it will stop working”, and I have full trust that they won’t mess around with the settings.
It’s cheaper for me to double up on my existing VPN subscription, but hey, I’m all about exploring options. I’m not thrilled about the recent political comments made by people in charge at Proton but I haven’t seen enough red flags just yet.
You log in to the VPN separately from the web or other phone apps. You don’t automatically get access to other Proton services because you’re going through your Proton VPN.
So you can login to just the VPN app for them.
