Hi everyone,
As you may know, Proton VPN has repeatedly proven effective anti-censorship tools, allowing people to find trustworthy news sources and access obstructed content.
To make Proton VPN’s anti-censorship features even more accessible, we made it possible to log in to the Android app without creating an account. Now you can log in and use the Proton VPN Android app for free without entering any credentials (i.e. you can “continue as guest”):
Together with the constant expansion of our infrastructure (over 6000 servers in close to 100 countries), we believe that this will help our privacy-first VPN service reach those who need it the most more efficiently than ever.
Thank you for your support,
The Proton Team
I pay for it so you can leach off of it. Go ahead. If you feel they did a good job, then consider subscribing.
Yes, but how many people can these contributors support?
Why does it matter?
Is this am honest question, or a drive-by downvote “get fucked” comment?
I mean, why do you care if it’s a sustainable business practice or whatever? Unless you’re a stake holder or something then how much money they’re missing out on shouldn’t even be your concern.
If I’m making an account and potentially moving to a whole new SaaS ecosystem, I might wanna know if what’s going on.
Imagine moving to a new email address, informing every single person about your new email, and then the company goes under. Or starts displaying ads. Etc., etc.
There’s no guarantee a paid service won’t go under either, though.
Not moving is easier than moving.
