    They do this every year. It is not related to their recent US politics drama, and its not damage control.

      It’s kinda nice to see how many new people proton has reached though, people that clearly only been using it for a few months. Their marketing clearly works and helps get people off google and Microsoft.

      And I don’t think they hurt the non-profit foundation as much as they think by closing their free accounts that are subsidised by us paying users.
