Proton VPN/mail. It’s often recommended as being safe, but I’m not so sure.

It has servers in Israel. Ties to Israel are never a good thing. Palantir, Epstein, etc are tied to Israel, and Israel also is known for its surveillance. It is also true that it’s completely legal there for them to access and monitor any and all information that passes through VPNs or networks there.

I’m looking for a safe alternative that’s privacy-conscious and isn’t linked to Israel. Both mail and vpn (it’s fine if they’re separate). Please let me know if you guys know.

    Bad news, the sun shines in Israel and provides illegal settlers with vitamin D therefore it must have ties to genocide. BOYCOTT THE SUN!!!

      It’s not about genocide.

      It’s about surveillance, which is fully legal in Israel.

      There are other regions that don’t conduct surveillance of all VPNs and comms. That’s better.

      BOYCOTT THE SUN!!!

      we already are, that’s why there’s no mass adoption of solar panels and electric vehicles in most of the world despite both being dirt cheap from china and we’ve doubled down on drilling/extracting fossil fuels to the highest levels ever in history while simultaneously quadrupling our energy usage via datacenters for AI.
