In fact, they frequently say that they'll comply with orders from the Swiss government.
The Swiss aren’t Tuta’s government. They would, however, comply with an order from the German government, because they would have no choice.
I meant Proton is pretty open about complying with the Swiss government
of course they are, and that's a good thing. because there's a lot of people in the comments here that mistook privacy for anonymity and expect Proton to break the law for them out of principal. which, quite frankly, is unfair to Proton because I'm willing to bet none of the people in this thread would be willing to do that if they were in Proton's position.
Not to mention that if proton refused to comply and got shut down, they'd be screwing over all of their customers.
