@MoneroIsTheFuture

Hi there, if you're referring to the recent case in Spain, the name/address of the terrorism suspect was actually given to police by Apple, not Proton. The terror suspect added their real-life Apple email as an optional recovery address in Proton Mail. Proton can't decrypt data, but in terror cases Swiss courts can obtain recovery email.

Setting a recovery email is optional, and you can read about other recovery methods here: https://proton.me/support/set-account-recovery-methods

@MoneroIsTheFuture We also provide an official Proton Mail onion site for use with the Tor network for those seeking anonymity.

It’s also important to differentiate that VPN is not classified as a communication tool in Switzerland — Proton VPN does not log IPs and there are no existing Swiss laws that can compel us to do so.

@MoneroIsTheFuture We addressed this in 2021: https://proton.me/blog/climate-activist-arrest

@MoneroIsTheFuture The identity and location of the activist was already known to the French authorities and the fact that Proton Mail was not able to hand over any messages even under legal order proves that our encryption works, and very likely of great assistance to the activist in this case.

Had they been using any other email provider, the outcome would have been very different.

@CatDad Hi Jeff, Proton currently uses AI in Proton Sentinel to help protect against account takeovers.

This is available for subscribers and off by default. Please note that this is not generative AI like ChatGPT, but rather a more traditional machine learning approach, used to prevent email abuse.

Any future applications will depend on community interest and demand.

@wonkothesane Hi Michael, it's important for us to use a mix of mainstream and decentralized channels so that we're not talking into an echo chamber and can reach those just starting their privacy journey.

It doesn't look like Signal offers unlimited broadcast channels yet, but we'll keep an eye out for any changes!

@rodricels Hi Rodrigo, Proton currently uses AI for Proton Sentinel (which is more traditional machine learning to prevent abuse rather than generative AI like ChatGPT) which helps to prevent account takeovers, even when an attacker has stolen your password.

Proton Sentinel is available for subscribers and off by default.

Any future applications will depend on community interest and demand.

Tengo hasta octubre para ver si me paso de @1password a @bitwarden, @protonprivacy Pass o iCloud.

Últimamente las extensiones de 1Password van un poco regular y el último cambio de diseño no ha mejorado la experiencia.

He leído a @mcontreras en Threads junto a otros y parece que no soy el único al que le pasa. Pensaba que sí.

¿Alguna otra recomendación?

@protonprivacy Please allow me to turn off the photo backup nag screen in Proton Drive. I don't have the storage space and am not included to buy it

@protonprivacy@mastodon.social avatar

@geomannie Thank you for your feedback, Bob! You can already specify your default tab, so the app doesn't open on Photos, on the latest beta version (2.5.0 - beta).

@protonprivacy it would be a great feature to offer a file inbox for receiving files via is there anything on roadmap?

protonprivacy,
@protonprivacy@mastodon.social avatar

@varni Thank you for clarifying! Sharing files via link is already possible on Proton Drive: https://proton.me/drive/file-sharing, and you can see all shared files in the section called "Shared" on the Proton Drive apps. However, it doesn't temporarily store files anywhere, like ShareFile seems to.

protonprivacy,
@protonprivacy@mastodon.social avatar

@varni The links only give access to a particular file or folder.
