    Here’s an article clarifying the latter half of this comment’s claims: https://www.theregister.com/2021/09/07/protonmail_hands_user_ip_address_police/

    Relevant bits from the article:

    Encrypted email service ProtonMail has become embroiled in a minor scandal after responding to a legal request to hand over to Swiss police a user’s IP address and details of the devices he used to access his mailbox – resulting in the netizen’s arrest.

    Back in January this year, the company’s homepage stated: “No personal information is required to create your secure email account. By default, we do not keep any IP logs which can be linked to your anonymous email account. Your privacy comes first.”

    Today that boast has been replaced with a mealy-mouthed version: “ProtonMail is email that respects privacy and puts people (not advertisers) first. Your data belongs to you, and our encryption ensures that. We also provide an anonymous email gateway.”
