    It is worth noting though, that Proton doesn’t allow you to use certain domains for recovery addresses. Admittedly this was awhile ago and maybe things have changed there but when I first joined Proton they wouldn’t allow me to set a duck.com or simplelogin.com or addy.io address as a recovery email.

    Obviously using an apple ID is stupid but Proton could make more of an effort too.

        So they will ask proton again for the address where everything is being forwarded… Not a good plan.

        It would be fun to daisy chain a bazillion emails, all forwarding to each other in circles and have the cops just call yahoo 20 times.

            No, only the ones on Proton. If you send or receive an email from outside, it’s unencrypted there.

            But still, it’s little to no difference for law enforcement. They will get the real address and whichever little info Proton or the other provider has on you.
