I'm revoking my endorsement of @proton.me, effective immediately. What a slap in the face from a company I thought was on the side of the people. I'm going to begin looking at alternatives after i get my next video done

In fact the most exciting development in the messaging interoperability space is Beeper (www.beeper.com) and didn't require any intervention. But that is just vertical (client-to-service) interop and you need an actual mandate for real horizontal interop.
