  • It has nothing to do with profits because it is something that happens everywhere even in countries/companies that are less profit focussed (yes that exists, you see it more in companies following the Rhineland business model).

    A friend of mine is way to smart for his own good has depression and is autistic. It is not like he couldn’t do the work, but it is A that he cannot guarantee he will be there every day and B he cannot really deal with people having authority on him. Nor does self employment work for him. Working together with him on anything doesn’t really work cause you cannot expect anything from him sadly.

    And it is getting worse and worse the more he realises that there is a lot wrong with society. He is now basically pushing anything and everybody away, but apparently he is getting more productive now he stopped blowing weed (his words, not mine).

    Yeah there are companies who don’t want to help people for profit/loss reasons, but that is not the only reason why some people cannot function like others in the world.

  • Yeah it’s a weird fucking name and i didn’t like the search results of it nor of Google so I switched to Ecosia instead

  • The only issue I have with this is that this fules the generalisation of politics even more. There is a lot more of a nuance in politics than just left/right or conservatives/liberals etc. You see this more in countries with more politics parties. It’s not an either or but a spectrum.

    But this meme really suits the current climate of Shitter and the US politic system

  • Cause people fail to awknowledge there is more to politics than just left and right, or progressive and conservative, etc.

  • What do you expect us non-Americans to do about it?

  • Exactly my point.

    Considering Porton AG is owned by a foundation it is harder for the CEO to get rich of it so Ill just wait and see what happens

  • There is still no proof that they aren’t complying with their own privacy standerds. Just because the CEO is a dick doesn’t mean the entire company has to be a dick. If everything is properly arranged the CEO shouldn’t even be arranged to push things that go against the believes and statements of the company in the situation of an European company with the structure of Proton.

    Currently I am unable to switch anyway due to time restrains and such, so I am just gonna see if we hear anything about the next audit regarding privacy.

  • “one year only then full price”

    You can say what you want, but this is mostly the norm with subscriptions. Not only that but legally they can often index the price as well. I haven't seen a single subscription in Europe that keeps Grandfathering prices with the exception of Old School Runescape where people claim it.I haven't verified it

  • This is where audits come into place. Currently Proton only made the result of their security audit public, but you can also get an accounting firm to audit the privacy statement. Not endorsing them or anything, but PureVPN has been audited by iirc Deloitte on their privacy statement. I have verified this a couple year by then sharing the conclusion of the report from Deloitte with signature.

    Proton should do something similar and yearly and could have a lot more faith in them. An accountant isn't going to risk his career for something like Proton's privacy statement. At least I would hope not

  • The Porton Foundation is also the majority owner of the company these days which makes it a bit harder to do whatever you wish with the company

  • It does make sense that a country located in Switzerland has this type of being "neutral", it's seems very similar to what the country was doing in WW1 and WW2.

    Anyway, I'll be keeping my Proton account. It works pretty well and I have more faith in the laws in Switzerland than in the EU. Saying that I still have more faith in the EU than the rest of the world if it comes to privacy. If anything changes in the future I'll be moved in about an hour or two.

  • Actual Budget a selfhosting budget software. It helps me keep track of my finances

  • Meanwhile in the rest of the world the news was flooded with information surrounding Trump. It’s a weird time we live in.

  • When they helped ending the second world war. We in Europe will forever be grateful that the US (and the other countries) helped us end the war.

  • Amazon has always been worse for me in terms of delovery times and service anyway. I only order shit there that I otherwise need to get from Aliexpress or whatever

  • The weird this is that generally the once with shit quality make a decent profit and a lot of the once with way better food make almost nothing.
