Proton VPN extension for firefox gone?

7d 16h ago in protonprivacy

It's still listed by Proton: https://protonvpn.com/download-firefox-extension

This is probably temporary. It happened before when Mozilla wanted some changes, and until they were made, Firefox delisted it. So maybe it's the same. But it is actively developed and maintained as you can see from Proton's site.

Proton is funding the French far right on YouTube

They are doing no such thing. https://www.reddit.com/r/ProtonMail/comments/1u05xs2/comment/oqgihvq/

" You're right to raise this, and we want to address it directly and provide you important context on how this happened.

Vincent Lapierre's channel should never have been part of our affiliate and sponsorship program, because we intentionally avoid association with channels whose content could distract from our message and divide our community. "

Apparently this is a false alarm.

For all those going off on being negative about Proton based on an ambiguous post, this is the best explanation of Proton's political position: https://medium.com/@ovenplayer/does-proton-really-support-trump-a-deeper-analysis-and-surprising-findings-aed4fee4305e

For the record, Feddit was under attack a month ago, receiving over 1.2M requests/day by scrapers.

When will you stop publicly complaining about being inconvenienced on feddit during that time?

Why am I seeing this? How do I know if it is safe to accept?

If you're able to connect to other websites, then I doubt it's you.

Both the client and the server machines must have reasonably accurate system clocks for an SSL/TLS handshake to succeed. Either your machine or their machine probably needs a time adjustment.

Feddit is working slow for me.

It's extremely quick for me. Is anyone else seeing any issue?

I have monitors that check from 4 global locations, including Southeast Asia, and none have alerted me to any latency.

Can't l share my piefed posts on other platforms ?

Restrictions were put into place when feddit.online started receiving 700K scraping requests/day, which left nothing except Gateway Timeouts for people using the server. But this restriction has since been removed. AFIK shared links referencing feddit.online should work in XMPP.

Seems Udemy got hacked, but hasn't told anyone yet
