@kubikpixel the user didn't practice great secops and put in an apple email as the recovery address. Swiss law requires proton to give up that decryptable recovery address. It's then #apple who handed over name, address and phone number. But apparently that doesn't make a good headline

@martijn Yes, Switzerland collects more data than anywhere else in Europe. Every provider is obliged to keep the collected data (IP & Co.) for 6 months. But very few people outside of Switzerland are aware of this, which is why they are sold as neutral and equally secure 🤐
