Proton joins suit against Apple for predatory practices that harm developers and consumers (proton.me)

Earlier today, Proton filed court papers in the US District Court for the Northern District of California to join an existing class-action lawsuit against Apple. Proton is a plaintiff in the case, but we are representing and suing on behalf of a class of similarly situated developers. Challenging one of the most powerful corporations in the history of capitalism is not a decision we make lightly, but Proton has long championed online freedom, privacy, and security, and we believe this action is necessary to ensure the internet of the future lives up to its potential.

My read on this is that he's an idiot who wanted to air a contrarian opinion ('cause that's how tech CEOs be), and focused in on a very literal/pedantic view of the issue without taking into account the context (which is that the Trump regime is facist and also just... lies, like, all the time).

Whether or not being a pedantic idiot is better or worse than being a Trumpist (or if it's even a meaningful difference) is up to you, of course.
