  "textContent": "Yeah the born Private campaign is not at all what their focus should be. And as techlore has said, Proton almost feels like big tech now, which I agree with. I way prefer the vibe of Tuta as a company. That being said, what alternative would you propose a company should take? If you become reliant on the paid services and then are unable to downgrade then.. not really sure what alternatives there are? I will never pay for these services because I would hate to be in this situation. Just cos you can afford something today, doesn’t mean you can tomorrow.\n\nSo far I get away with proton mail free plan, with anonaddy and some proton aliases. With anonaddy you can just turn aliases off until you need them to not use the free bandwidth. When protonmail box fills up I intend to download all .eml files using their CLI tool and then just clear out my inbox in their cloud. Should be sustainable.",
