Proton will buy it, so proton will read all your notes (we remember proton’s “E2EE”)
In what way can Proton read any of your content?
Proton doesn’t have E2EE, they decrypt and then encrypt your emails. So if they do it with email, why not to repeat same thing in standard notes?Also they develop proprietary software(docs for example) and if you are interested in all proton’s problems watch mental outlaw’s video about it.
If I have any mistakes, sorry, I am not Englishman.
If your sender sends an unencrypted message, yes Proton can see the plain text as would be expected. (Note, sending via TLS doesn't count as an encrypted email.) However according to their many audits their process is to immediately encrypt with zero-knowledge encryption in such a way that only you can access.
If you can't trust their published open source code and their multiple audits, then sure, you should look for alternate solutions.
For anyone else, it's this video. I'm 5 minutes in and it's talking about how SMTP isn't encrypted so Proton can read unencrypted email. Yeah, no shit...
