edit: lol wouldn’t have pegged this crowd for a sensitive bunch. my mistake, carry on trumpeting your audits lol

This isn’t about ‘trumpeting audits’ or ‘being sensitive’ or brand loyalty or whatever. Audits and sharing those audits like this are essential for transparancy and building trustworthiness, especially when it comes to security and privacy. If a VPN would say ‘no logs’ but never proves it with transparent audits, they’re untrustworthy. Simple as that. This serves as proof they don’t log.

I also don’t see Proton acting special here. And they do share all the other stuff you’ve mentioned, so I’m not sure why you seem to ignore that.

Sidenote, if it matters: while I am a Proton customer, I don’t use ProtonVPN
