Saily is by Nord Security, also the company behind NordVPN

Not a good idea. The value changes rapidly.

True, I just thought it might be more useful to OP than just the PDF + all other audits are listed too.

My point is that sharing an article by an irrelevant third party spreading misinformation due commercial interest is not a good pratice.

Share the audit then, not the tomsguide article.

Audit can be easily accessed here: https://protonvpn.com/blog/no-logs-audit

Oh I'm aware of this, their is no way around this without revealing personal data :(

I think Tor with Tor Bridges (to obscure that you use Tor) is your best bet. Or using Tor over a VPN (using a VPN systemwide and then connect to Tor)

Everything else is just standard opsec, not leaking personal information and so on

Also, don't use a E-Mail address or phone number tied to your real information, like your name or IP address. Because that is how many people got caught in the past.

You can't use social media anonymously, it will all be pseudonymous aslong as you engage, if you consume social media passively, you can. But their have been reports that passive social media consumption is tied to negative mental health.

The article is not very trustworthy, promoting VPN they have financial partnerships and calling them "best"

Security and data protection wise is GrapheneOS very superior to e/OS/, but it has the tradeoff that it doesn't support MicroG which is less worse reimplementation of Google Play Services, while GrapheneOS only sandbox them and removes the priveleged access.

Glad to see most Germans are against.

Your technical and legal understanding seems limited. I personally work in the IT space and am a hobbyist in legal matters, in particular data protection.

I'm pretty sure there was nothing they could've legally done to protect the payment information.

It's not a "bad look" for Proton; instead, it's just people being confronted with reality.

If you commit a crime, law enforcement will be after you, and if your operational security sucks, there will be no service that can counter that.
