Can you give an example? This is the first criticism of Proton I've heard

They can't. I've seen similar critiques popup and I'm certain it's a shill trying to move people away from proton. Why? To what end? No clue on either front.

Proton is the shiznit. They answer to no one except their customers. They are self funded with lots of help from us. They never took any money from the investment firms that would try to control how they do things usually to the detriment of quality, security, etc.
