A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Within the first 10 seconds it falsely claims Proton requires you to use an emailaaddress to create an account. I stopped after that.
Proton will often if not always require an email or phone number for verification when signing up for a free account. It's not hard to find people complaining about this on forums.

Even if it is true, you can use a temp email service.
Sure, but the point of the video is that the email requirement is not that big a deal for most people
