*proton was coerced into collecting data and giving it to the swiss government
hardly even coerced. they were following the law, you know those things you have to follow if you want to continue to remain in business and functional. they also gave data post subpoena, nothing before it, so it's not really anything to be afraid of.
iirc it was interpol on behalf of French government as well, not swiss but I could be wrong on that as it doesn't matter much.
