Proton's very biased article on Deepseek (lemmy.ml)

Article: https://proton.me/blog/deepseek

Calls it "Deepsneak", failing to make it clear that the reason people love Deepseek is that you can download and it run it securely on any of your own private devices or servers - unlike most of the competing SOTA AIs.

I can't speak for Proton, but the last couple weeks are showing some very clear biases coming out.

They explicitly said the Republicans were on the side of the little guy. I probably don't need to explain the awful shit that they're doing that showcases that that is not what they're doing.

Saying they're "fighting for the little guys" while at the same time shitting on their political opponent is a clear show of support.

Now I don't particularly care about the Proton CEO's opinions. My opinion of CEOs is that they're dickheads until proven otherwise. But when you publicly support this shit, and use your company's official accounts to back yourself up, it becomes a lot more egregious in my mind. And even worse when they pretend they're not actually doing that.

But his 'support' of the republicans was saying that 10 years ago they used to be against big tech and that he hoped Trump would vary that forward. Obviously Trump is very unlikely to do this but he is literally just hoping the republicans would do something about big tech that the dema didn't do
