Got in touch with ProtonVPN support and asked about this. Here’s their reply:
Our engineers have conducted a thorough analysis of this threat, reconstructed it experimentally, and tested it on Proton VPN.
We concluded that:
- The attack can only be carried out if the local network itself is compromised
- Our Windows and Android apps are protected against it
- For iOS and macOS apps, you are completely protected from this as long as you’re using a Kill Switch and a WireGuard-based protocol (our apps use them by default, and if a user wants to use something other than WireGuard derivates, they’d have to manually set it up). Note that Stealth, WireGuard TCP and Smart protocol on iOS/macOS are all WireGuard-based.
- For our Linux app, we’re working on a fix that would provide full protection against it.
I reported the bug to Proton support and they said they are investigating but suggested I uninstall and reinstall the extension. I did and lo, my forms started working again. I can recommend you try to uninstall and reinstall too (disabling it was not enough).
Note that the “plus” suffix doesn’t hide your real email, that’s a small but notable difference. I could well see websites parsing for +… patterns and removing them before selling your data.
That’s cool! I’ve used enough raspberry pi’s over the years to know that SD cards, even if industrial grade are likely to fail at some point so I try to avoid booting from them. eMMC would be much better but sometimes a pain to flash depending on the tooling available. Having a SATA port would allow to use HDDs which provide a lot of capacity for cheap. I guess the processor needs to be an Amlogic for the best media experience?
How does storage look/work with a SBC? Do you have to boot off of an SD card? Any support for sata drives?
Piped is also hit or miss. I have to change instance almost every day, even the small ones don’t always work.
I use Proton Pass to generate aliases with the browser extension but otherwise use 1password which is much more mature and has great support on all platforms.

The reason that 2fa exists is not to protect you if someone gets their hands on your device. It’s to protect you if your “static” credentials leaked from a providers’ database or you otherwise got phished. Using a password manager to handle mfa is totally reasonable.
Cool, didn’t know that!
Proton pass does e-mail aliases if you pay up for the high tier subscription
I tried it now and could start a call without an account. Am I missing something?
With Proton Pass it will even generate those fake emails for you. No need to tweak any settings. And the best part is that you’re not forced to use the password manager that goes with it.
I used it for a while but could not find good results for any kind of advanced query. Qwant in comparison is slightly better but still worse than duckduckgo unfortunately. For really niche stuff I still need to revert to Google…
Unfortunately the 99% that don’t know about less popular options will still be affected
And install python and install those dependencies before you can even run the thing
