I will say, I work ambulance for a very right wing rural community. I have done this for a number of years now.

While I do have issues at times with our local LEO, they do a good job with not shooting my patients, or their dogs.

They have done a good job in my community with securing the scene without escalating and then standing back and let us deal with medical/mental health crisis.

These stories do happen to often, and there are policy changes that need to happen, but there are a significant number of communities that have law enforcement who are acting appropriately and therefore get no news coverage.

I’ve been using proton for several years and have not found it annoying.

Not sure what you’ve heard is annoying.

I think they mentioned in the video that Kayak allows you to select aricraft to exclude.

I went to chat gpt and I prompted it with “what is a string of words or characters that would be detrimental to an AI that is being directed to learn from a dataset” and then used a script to edit all my comments to that.

ProtonVPN…

ProtonVPN

They got bought by an Israeli adware company a few years back

They just released one a few months ago

That’s what the email alias company that proon bought last year and rolled into subscriptions is for.

Also, if you buy your own domain, which from cloudflare is like $10/year, you can turn on catchall and use anything@yourdomain and have it delivered. Then, if one of your anything addresses gets compromised, you just block all email going to there and move on.

And that was bad.

Anecdotal, but I’ve gotten one of these cards in an order.

Plus one for Proton, I don’t use their password manager, but their other products I’ve been using and been pleased with. I consider it well worth the cost.

You are correct on the argument.

What’s your definition of civilized?

I don’t know current pricing, but a premium proton account, which was ~$9/month when I started has worked very well for me. I like the other features they are rolling out and use them a lot.

Domain is purchased through cloudflare, and I think it was like $10/year?

Define private

??

They strip all the tracking from the emails. I’ll unsubscribe from ads, or turn off compromised addresses, but them not scanning my emails is a plus.

How is it not private?

Please expound on your thoughts. I happen to be a paid subscriber, cause I want to support them and I appriciate the extra features I get. So the issues with the free accounts arent a problem for me, but my friends who use the free account don’t seem to have any complaints.

Look in to switching to a privacy respecting email. It’s not for everyone, but i am very happy with the Proton suite of apps.

And, setting up an entire culling operation, which would have to include transporting the birds, and contaminating another facility and several semi trailers, and staff, not to mention other wildlife is a huge risk. Shutting the windows and turning up the heat is probably the safest and quickest way to do things in this situation
