And learn how to use it.

And get your FF fork loaded up with the right extensions to prevent fingerprinting.

Ugh, this world is so cooked, but we keep reaching out of the oven and turning up the heat on ourselves.

How come not proton? Did they get caught with their hands in the ~~cookie jar~~ traffic logs?

CEO honestly thinks Trump and the Republicans are going to go after tech monopolies. Either he's detached from reality or he's trying to keep them from coming after Proton by cooperating. Either way is not great.

and cozying up to american gov no matter who it is just gives me bad vibes that they would happily turn over anything they want when asked

this is the most succint way of verbalising my problems with the situation. i know ceo's largely sway R, i'm not surprised by andy's politic pov. but this tweet was openly eating trumps ass which gives me the ick. like bro you are a ceo i know youre a lying pos but now you're a liar and want to rim the nazis, your business is founded on trust how the fuck can i trust you?
