They dont get to choose if they hand over data. If they dont do it voluntarily, they just get raided. Also handing data to any EU police means that the US will get that info too.

Do you have any suggestions of an email service provider that is more respectful of privacy than proton? Or is this just the dystopia we live in where no data is private...

I mean you can just encrypt your emails. Then they at least cant read the contents of your conversations. But the only way to prevent your metadata from being yoinked is p2p messaging like briar. Using a server thats not controlled by you will always leave traces.
