Looks like the company officially recinded the statement Andy Yen made. Posted text to avoid Xitter link
Tap for spoiler
We want to clarify that Proton's CEO did not endorse Trump, only the Republican nominee for antitrust. Nevertheless, we have retracted the statement, which was put out by mistake due to an internal miscommunication. For further information, you can also see this Reddit thread that contains an analysis of why many believe that Proton and our CEO are not supporting any party:https://old.reddit.com/r/Anarchism/comments/1id5v21/does_proton_really_support_trump)
Proton is not controlled by any single person, but by the non profit Proton Foundation which has neutrality in its governing principles and we remain committed to the neutrality principle. The Proton Foundation is also legally obligated in its charter to defend freedom and democracy.
