This person isn’t a terrorist.
Proton also don’t allow temp addresses.

Did you read the story? Or are you just here to stir the pot and display your Proton Fanboi bona fides?

Its a very clear case that is painted in the story.
Indeed it is. The police asked and Proton provided. Very clear indeed.
At last, something we can agree on.

Questionable and not the point.

The point is that Proton, a company that sells privacy, violated that trust, apparently without much of a fight.
The Spanish police didn’t even allege that the person is a terrorist.
I think we’re done here. We’re not even speaking the same language.
Have a nice life.
@CaptObvious @Mikufan if the user practiced proper opsec it wouldn’t be an issue. Proton provides privacy not anonymity. Those are 2 different things. The second requires opsec in the users end.
