I know there are plenty of software missing from here. This is just a fun infographic I made, no need to take it seriously :)

    If I understood correctly from Proton’s privacy policy, VPN does not log IP addresses but at least in some circumstances Mail does. This is from their privacy policy:

    Due to limitations of the SMTP protocol, we have access to the following email metadata: sender and recipient email addresses, the IP address incoming messages originated from, attachment name, message subject, and message sent and received times.

    One thing must be remembered: Even Proton must follow the law and rules.

      And those are the limitations created by the fact that email was never meant to be truly secure, not in the way we define and expect security and privacy nowadays at least.
