If you do solid research on it, it shouldn’t be a huge concern. Considering all my charges for my VPN are processed through Gibraltar and they post third-party audits on data retention and clarify what is logged, then I’d trust mine.
Care to share why those are terrible? Because from what I’ve seen Proton and Mullvad are pretty reputable.
I agree NordVPN isn’t a good one, they have had a bad rep for breaches in the past and tbh that site used to be more credible a year or two ago before they reformatted and inserted all the ads in there.
Maybe share actual reputable VPNs then than talking down?
Technically speaking, if the people really wanted to remain fully anonymous they could’ve used a VPN to login to their email and the information could’ve then pointed to a VPN service which would have to comply with the authorities. Not sure how much they have to comply with Swiss orders in those regards but it seems like this is unfortunate but not fully on Proton imo.
But then you need to trust your VPN.

This is a decent list from a trustworthy website, although the one I use isn’t on there.
@simsymbiote @SrEstegosaurio
This is a terrible list top 3
Mullvad, IVPN, ProtonVPN
NordVPN shouldn’t even be listed what 🤡🤡🤡

Proton busted some French environmental activists IIRC. Mullvad sketches me out because of where the servers are located lol
So it seems like it was ProtonMail that handed over the information and not their VPN service. Just for clarification.
