When I read "extreme crimes", I don't think of a scuffle with the cops over what started as a misdemeanor arrest or non-criminal enforcement action. Protonmail should change their wording to be clear that governments can and do compel them to collect such information for ordinary crimes.

Yup, fully agree: Protonmail should just say "we comply with the law". Though at this point the security reputation of the Swiss should have given anyone pause to think (Crypto AG, Omnisec AG, etc)

My point was just that 1) the arrest was related to squatting, not the climate 2) these people, idealist and well-intentioned as they were, were not "peaceful" (at least, not when faced with a brigade of police officers)
