I tried proton in 2019. My life fell apart for a few years but now I’ve come back to proton again.

So is everything I do on my network 100% secure now? Sincere question. I am not a computer expert. Please tell me.

    I’m using proton. proton is my VPN.

    So my question is, for example, if I’m using public Wi-Fi, I’m safe behind my proton VPN wall?

    passwords, banking app visits, embarrassing websites, is this all for-my-eyes-only now?

      when it comes to the internet, you can only be safer; NEVER fully safe w/o air gaping.

      there was a recently discovered man-in-the-middle style vulnerability on vpn’s, including proton’s, so you’re only safer if you’re using a vpn connection from your android 14 phone until that gets fixed (if hasn’t already been fixed)
