I understand your feeling, but I think massive advertising is needed. This is high level marketing, basically telling the general public there is another way other than big tech. Most people don’t know this to know there are options to choose…so they don’t.
Why is it “needed”?
Why do they care about attracting all these people?
Every one of them increases their operating costs, and doesn’t provide revenue if they stay in the free tier. Why do they want to increase their numbers so badly?
Why isn’t it enough to just make a good product and let that be what brings people in?
The only reason for this kind of aggressive advertising is because they’re making a push for growth. They want to become one of those “big tech” companies.
Let me be clear, I’m not shaming them for advertising their services. But I’m uncomfortable with the scale and aggression with which they do it. They are putting money into this, and a lot of it. It’s not like they’re a non-profit, the end goal is pretty obvious here.
We’ve been through this before with so many other tech companies, Proton will be no different. It’s just entering the honeymoon phase, is all.
