A company's purpose is to be profitable, ethics side is largely irrelevant.

Maybe so, but companies such as Proton's biggest asset is their reputation...a reputation of being privacy-focussed. Without that they are nothing, and they know that. As a result, they try to live up to that reputation as well as possible.

Being as it was started by Sir Tim Berners-Lee (among some of CERN's other founding fathers of the web) is just icing on the cake.

Proton gives data to governments if requested. Why are you trying to shill it?
