Proton's CEO, Andy Yen, cancelled a company-wide "re-interviews" program that aimed to assess employees' use of AI, following an investigation by 404 Media that revealed security concerns and a culture of fear within the company. The re-interviews were intended to fire employees who did not use AI enough, and Yen acknowledged a "communication failure" but stated that the direction had not changed. The move is seen as damage control, and Proton users are questioning the company's commitment to security. AI summary
