Pour info les gens qui sont encore fans de Proton Mail : ils sponsorisent des vidéos de Vincent Lapierre (le youtubeur d'extrême droite)

@andrewz @slothrop @nileane

I just checked on the actual Youtube channel and the right-wing extremist really has a sponsor section, he talks about proton mail for a few minutes at the start of the video

It's not clear if a human at proton was actually involved though, maybe he simply generated an affiliate link and is trying to get people to click it

EDIT: they issued a statement and claim that this channel kinda slipped through their review process

@Shobeck @nileane @protonprivacy
I'd like to know too

[arnaud_tabarly@mastodon.social]

@nileane merci pour l'info

[benaveling@mastodon.ie]

Q. Is that evidence of sponsorship, or is that just an affiliate link that proton wouldn’t have to have approved?

@WorldTravelerAll7 Proton has shown time and time again to be unreliable. Plus, they have a big corpo mentality, trying to give you all the app at once Google style, and that inevitably leads to downfalls.

Tuta does one thing and they do it well. Email. They advocate and fight for privacy all the time, they don't comply with the governement, they're way more transparent that Proton on all they do.

What to do/use is your choice, the important thing is making it an informed decision.

[ckiyme@autonomous.zone]

@WorldTravelerAll7 That said, Tuta is not the only option of course. There's Posteo, Startmail, Disroot and much more.

@nileane do you possibly have recommendations for alternatives?

Edit: if you reply to this message please untag Niléane as she has stated she has no interest in alternatives to Proton.

[wraith@demanufacture.org]

@BenAveling @nileane That's my question as well - lacking French language of course but the link looks like an affiliate link each user can generate. Anyway, a statement on this would be nice, @protonprivacy!

Hey PROTON, VOus faîtes vraiment des partenariats avec ce mec? Plus de proton pour moi, quand bien même je dois tout migrer.

No place for that #protonpartenariatpourri.

[etienneconteur@piaille.fr]

@nileane rahh... et comme une adresse email est quelque chose de diffusé, c'est galère de changer.

Merci pour l'information

@WorldTravelerAll7 @McWabbit @nileane @Tutanota I have tuta mail and its very satisfying.

[jakob_36@mastodon.social]

@jvnknvlgl @nileane Some alternatives are Tuta Mail, Posteo, Mailfence and Mailbox.org.
My number one recommendation would be Tuta Mail, also from a political perspective.

[greenman@fosstodon.org]

@nileane le problème est que si ça tombe le boulanger, le boucher, le vendeur se légumes ont aussi des idées d extrême droite, vu les scores en France ce ne serait pas étonnant donc voilà voilà (sans parler des vêtements fringues chocolat café...)
