Happy to see a privacy-focused carrier, and it has better policies than any other carrier out there. But founder is formerly from Palantir and there’s a lot of VC money behind it (not inherently a problem, just flagging).

Thoughts?

True, expensive. Prosper to offset no selling customer data.

    I refuse to believe they didn't do this for their benefit. Especially at the price tag. I feel the same about Proton. The minute the government knocks without a warrant they'll still turn you over.

    Maybe, I couldn't say if it's a premium for privacy, marketing, or what.

    As for turning over data without a warrant, I don't have a problem with companies complying with lawful orders, as Proton does. I don't think there's any evidence to support the notion that Proton complies with non-legal or mere requests from LE. Correct me if I'm wrong.
