I see this block every time I open my email. Is this a bug I’m facing or is this the new normal?

    There are ads in the VPN app? I have never seen an ad on any Proton service, except for occasional emails or banners around upgrading my subscription.

    Then again, I’ve been a premium subscriber for a while now.

      Yes there are. I just saw an ad for their new Duo subscription in a pop-up when it started up.

        A single ad when a new subscription type launches doesn’t seem like a big deal to me.

          It’s not a single ad. It’s a new ad every time they launch a new subscription service, or have some sort of sale, several times a year, across all of their products, with no way to permanently disable them.
