So I assume the boycott of Proton is being called off then?

Well, what are they supposed to do, turn down obvious growth opportunities based on political affiliation? They have to stay in business. If humanity had transcended capitalism, maybe things would be different, but as it stands we live in a capitalist society where organizations that provide a service need to maximize profit in order to keep providing that service. That's pretty much unavoidable unless you can get crowdfunding like Wikimedia, and even then you still need to reach people.

Companies like Proton sponsor creators across the political spectrum not because they agree with those creators, but because they're businesses and they're trying to get more customers. I saw Matt Walsh shilling for NordVPN. Does that mean I shouldn't use NordVPN? This insistence on absolute ideological purity that some people on the left engage in is just silly and counter-productive. And for the record, I'm pretty far left myself.
