Seems like a nice way to raise a bit of money for the foundation, and the problem of children needing email addresses is a real one. I just don't understand how reserving an email address years before they need it actually improves their privacy.
Is this really just a case of reserving an address if your child has a common first name and last name, without having to keep the address active?
It's a bit strange, Proton has always been behind in the Linux community despite actually being overall respected for Privacy (not anonymity), but those are a major userbase.
I wish it was just Drive. They seem to acquire or put these new modules in half baked and they see little to no user end changes for years. I've been with them a long time and I like them but I increasingly dread their announcements when basic features aren't implemented.
Much better than Gmail, where Google leak information of half a million users every year [1] to governments [1] and no, those aren't necessarily "criminals".
