And now you have more downvotes than OP 😂

Seems like it’s working now

Russians and Poles are Slavic brothers, here they (we) are historically closer than the Germans,

Brothers… Which russia invaded several times and also partioned Poland with Austria and Prussia. After all with Germany and French, Poland has good relations now, and they don’t say or threaten them with another invasion like russia.

Because of propaganda. There is a lot of missinformations. Even people in their late twenty’s or before 30, often they compare EU to USSR, they are to young to remember USSR from their own lives and they believes in propaganda about it.

This is evident even from the results of the presidential elections where at least two candidates were openly pro-Russian. But it didn’t matter, because in discussions among ordinary people the main criteria for the election were fear of gays, EU immigrants and immigrants from Ukraine. Folks want easy explanations of difficult problems so there is a group of people which gives them that. It’s easy to blame everything on gays, the evil and leftist European Union, immigrants from Ukraine for driving expensive cars or “living off social benefits” and then show up in Russia and say “look what a nice conservative country, there are no such problems here.” Of course, I’m generalizing a bit, but this is more or less the reasoning of many people, including young people, who take their message from conspiracy theories on tiktok and YouTube. This is a really serious problem in Poland.

So in your opinion is not worth to use any these online services and better go offline?

In my country it isn’t an option. I can only use virtual revolut prepaid or gift cards.

You wrote that if the activists used proton VPN to register their mail account, proton would not have the information he needed to pass on. It’s not true cause they would probably have the same metadata about them.

Had the activist been using proton vpn to create and access their email, Proton would not have had the info they were forced to give up.

What? If protonmail collects any metadata, why do you assume protonVPN doesn’t?

No, I’m not saying that I don’t trust proton at all. I think that they have great services but as I wrote in the title - don’t put all eggs in one basket.

I think I won’t trust any company with holding ALL my data.

Ok, but what does it mean, is that, when proton will be compromised, all of your data also can be compromised. When we have our data divided between different independent services, compromising one does not mean violating the others.
