For context, in my password manager I had tried formatting some of my entrees so that it would contain the usual username and password, but instead of creating whole new entrees for the security questions for the same account, I just added additional fields in the same entree in order to keep things a little more tidy.
I was not expecting that doing so would result in later being shaken down by Proton to pay even more money just to access the same few bytes of fucking text I had trusted them with. This is sleazy as fuck and I am dropping these idiots entirely.
The person here wasn’t mad about Proton charging money. They were mad that when they signed up to the service and entrusted login information to Proton it was not a restricted feature, but now Proton has started to request money for it and they can’t get access to it again.
Not to mention this person is already a paying customer, they just don’t pay the 13 dollars Proton started requesting to store a couple bytes of data, or at the very least provide temporary access for backup.
The topic of this post is that a company is charging money for altering what was previously not a restricted feature. That violates the third rule in the sidebar.
I agree OP has a right to be upset, but this post has nothing to do with privacy.
