Good? You seem to be implying that's a worse thing than wherever Proton Mail is based, but haven't stated why.

Australian law allows the government to demand access to your email, and Fastmail hold the encryption keys. That's not the case for Switzerland.

It's Swiss. From memory they have pretty good legal protections for privacy, at least compared to Australia.
