    Criticism over statements on anonymity and surveillance

    Founder Boris Siegenthaler was criticized for a LinkedIn post opposing online anonymity and expressing acceptance of identity requirements and broad metadata collection in some circumstances. Communications manager Thomas Jacobsen also criticized privacy companies that opposed Swiss surveillance legislation, arguing that strong support for anonymity could impede criminal justice. Privacy advocates objected to these positions because they appeared inconsistent with the expectations associated with privacy-focused services.
