I am shocked to see so many posts in Reddit and here mentioning Andy's post.

There are people creating posts with titles like Proton became MAGA, Andy endorsed Republican, and the like..

I am urging everyone, please take a step back and look at the whole story.

I really don't want people to be manipulated by reading only the titles of those posts and come into conclusion of what Proton is doing.

And please think this, "Proton Mail is the world’s largest secure email provider. Swiss, end-to-end encrypted, private, and free." what does the service has to do with politics?

Thank you

My 2¢ on this, I can see why he thinks what he is doing is a good idea. Proton is an EU company thats main product is privacy focused and something that authoritarians dont like. With the recent tiktok curfuffle the US has set a precident for making rulings against foreign companies they dont like (because 47 wants to be authoritarian). To me it seems like he is just taking his turn kissing the ring, and given the [gestures broadly to everything] I dont expect to see many companies refusing to do so.
