    So, in summary, Proton will block any account, without any evidence, just because a random CERT says so.

      if a CERT came to whatever email provider you use and accused you of being a malicious hacker, your email service would absolutely terminate your account.

      Ok, they are getting down votes, but technically true?Yes they reinstated it, but they assume guilt rather than check first?

      I assume that they have a level of trust in the reporter, that hopefully they will not extend next time. I guess they must get a lot of these, and that failing to block spammers means they may lose trust of other email servers?
