Haven’t heard much from EFF or Proton on their happy applause for anti trans policies.

@hacks4pancakes Haven't heard Proton say anything about Transgender folk. Did see their CEO put his penis in a blender by making a statement of support for a Trump antitrust appointee, made a bunch of alt-right talking points and then issue more of the same on the official Proton social media labeled as an official statement. He then started a personal account on Reddit with a binary version of 88 (Heil Hitler) at the end.

@hacks4pancakes But, nothing anti-trans except making an active public show of support for MAGA. Then again, when you support fascists for making the trains run on time, you are in fact supporting the fascists overall. Neutrality in times such as these is not neutrality and they made an active show of support.

@Infoseepage I’m sorry but if company CEO is a nazi the company is a nazi

@hacks4pancakes Oh now I’m confused. I know Meta went full Nazi. I’m unclear on the EFF.

@hacks4pancakes I just finished moving about 8 years of mail out of proton. Re-pointing my many domains as we speak. Not paying another dime to those pricks once I decoded the binary in his reddit username

@nbailey @hacks4pancakes what do you mean, binary in username?
And I also killed my account too with proton. More curious than wanting more proof.

He ... wait, he did WHAT??
Can you link a source?My SE-Fu falls short. But I did find this post by Andy, which looks ... more detailed, I guess, and not all that bad:

@fedithom @Infoseepage @hacks4pancakes It's still *possible* to be someone born in 1988 and not be aware of the choice of user name when using (part of) their birth year to do the usual quick-and-dirty username disambiguation.
But a CEO of a company with a popular product used for a long time largely by people who really, really don't want to be associated in any way with Nazi shit should recognize this as a Bad Choice (TM). And if they don't...well, that says something right there.
(Obfuscating 88 with binary is particularly sus. It requires you to actively *think* "I want to put '88' in my user name and *not* just because using my birth year is convenient -- because otherwise I'd just use the decimal version.")

@dpnash @fedithom @hacks4pancakes And the thing about dogwhistles is they're often used in a form which is deniable. No, I'm not putting 88 because I'm a Nazi, I'm putting 88 because it's my birth year. No, that Swastika isn't because I'm a Nazi, it's an ancient pagan symbol used by many cultures. No, I didn't use all these alt-right word choices to offend. How can you think that?
It's tribal recognition. It's signaling. It's gang colors.
