If your account holds your contacts, calendar, passwords, files, and email, you're SOL if it gets disabled. Diversify and keep offline backups. If it’s someone else’s computer, it’s not yours. #proton #privacy #security #email

i would say protes is good for people coming from apple or google, and are going for better privacy. people who are more privacy focused self host lots, and use other methods of splitting up ecosystems

I have no idea about the details of this situation, but it's good practice regardless to not depend on a single company for everything. A company also can't allow their services to be used for obvious illegal activity 🤷.

unless i was to selfhost email, not being able ton access email if an account was to get disabled would be a major issue, though for everything else like passwords, mfa, files, calendar, etc i always do offline and use the cloud for backup, so if one goes the other stays
