    Proton CEO Andy Yen is a libertarian tech bro who supports Trump. Tech bros are a societal cancer, willing to kill the many to benefit the few.

      Do you have any other sources beyond the one tweet bandied about to back this up?

      I don’t disagree with your statement, I’m just genuinely curious because I haven’t heard much about his personal politics beyond that

        I did hear about his politics, it’s years and years of progressive actions, donating to pro-LGBT and pro-women causes, and criticizing conservatives.

        But he once said an anti-big tech FCC pick is a good thing which means he’s MAGA.
