After the unexpected mention in last night's @joerogan podcast, people are wondering if Google is still suppressing Proton.

It's complicated, but probably.

Here's a bit more info. 🧵
1/7
 Being suppressed in Google search is often fatal and Proton experienced a serious incident in 2015 (since then resolved, and no, we did not sue Google):

 However, even today, strange behaviors can be seen in Google searches for Proton services.

Google downranking is never as simple as "search for Proton Mail and it's not there".

Google’s #DMA compliance plan is a sham, and here’s why.

⬇️ 1/6 Google DMA
What is the DMA?
Under the new European Union’s Digital Markets Act #DMA, the practice of ‘tying and bundling’ is now prohibited, meaning @Google must stop preferencing its own key services on @Android.

Dark patterns push you to use a Google Identity
If you don't have a Google Account, you will need to create one to sign in to your Android smartphone. Using dark patterns, #Google makes it very hard to use outside emails to create an account on #Android.

What is a digital footprint?

Your online activities create a trail, known as a #digitalfootprint, which can be used to track you.

Learn how to avoid leaving one and how to make it work for your benefit.

Defining your digital footprint

A #digitalfootprint is created by online activity, leaving behind a visible mark of your presence. Browsing, logging in, and clicking links are all recorded in some way.
