On the contrary, I think it’s autocratic governments specifically that don’t like it. Which is more or less the point, in the same way that any service that uses encryption and doesn’t give up user info is something they won’t like. Otherwise everyone with a Mac, IPad or IPhone would be considered shady, which as we know isn’t the case.
The people who hold the view you mentioned more than likely don’t even know what ProtonMail is.
I don’t necessarily disagree, but I have personally met a few people who did know what it was and also thought it was very sketchy and didn’t trust it.
However, at the same time, I know how worthless a personal anecdote is in the bigger scheme of things, so you’re probably right that most people that hold that attitude don’t know wtf it is.
