I was strongly considering their plans by the time he tweeted that, made me do a 180 degrees turn and look other places for private mail services and cloud driveโ€ฆ After that event, he did write on the comments of a Reddit post that heโ€™s not a Trump supporter and was distancing himself from right wing politics.

I made peace with it. Was he writing the truth or just trying to throw some water into the fire, idk. I have currently the unlimited plan and Iโ€™m happy, in the end of the day I want to support companies that are European and provide services like Proton and Tuta.
