Encrypted Messaging Service Proton Mail Disabled 2 Journalists' Accounts

The journalists had set up a new Proton Mail account to manage "responsible disclosures" for the article, which is where ethical hackers disclose vulnerabilities to organizations. A week after their article was published, the journalists found the account they had set up for responsible disclosure notifications had been suspended. A day later, one of the journalists found that his personal Proton Mail account had also been suspended.

“If activities which are illegal under Swiss law, or other activities which are technically not illegal but damaging to Proton (such as sending spam) were not forbidden, Proton would unfortunately become blocked by other email providers, hurting legitimate users.
