I didn't know who she was, so I just assumed it was true and that she was just another celebrity sponsored by a VPN company.

Yup, I don't know who she is, nor do I particularly care. What I do care about is how Proton behaves, and if they're going to stoop to the levels other VPN providers go to in order to attract customers, it's not a service I'd like to support.

I'm currently not a Proton customer, but I've been considering it. I'm currently w/ Tuta for email and use a DIY VPN, but I could see switching to Proton as their product line expands.
