Let me get this straight: The FBI was monitoring a protestor’s bank account and spotted a Proton Mail purchase. They contacted the Swiss DOJ, requesting a subpoena based on the specific Order ID, date, and credit card digits of the bank account being monitored. The Swiss DOJ agreed, approached Proton Mail, and the company complied with the official legal request under Swiss law. The real scandal here isn't Proton Mail's compliance. It is that the FBI is seemingly monitoring the financial transactions of millions of citizens' bank accounts. This can happen with Mullvad too. If the FBI spots a Mullvad Purchase on anyone's bank account, they can go up to Mullvad with the Order ID, date, and credit card digits, and request Mullvad to redirect VPN traffic of that specific Order ID to the FBI's own monitoring servers. |
