Nothing in their marketing says they’ll refuse to comply with lawful orders.
Maybe not now, but it used to say ‘your privacy comes first’ which certainly gave the impression privacy would be more important than blindly believing and obeying courts.
For sure, I know this, but privacy does not come first for any of them and it was wrong of Proton ever to say it did. To them, their survival comes before yours, so they will betray you to the Swiss courts if needed.
No. Nothing in their marketing says they’ll refuse to comply with lawful orders.
They do successfully challenge many of them. This is all documented in their transparency report.

Thanks for the link to their report.
Privacy is not binary. It lives on a Spectrum. On one end you have Proton and Tuta. And on the other, Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.
