@FoHmaddox @ProtonVPN @Apple But with mobile we do use the same overall idea--we don't hold the crypto keys, & no customer data that we have is worth a subpoena.

@FoHmaddox @ProtonVPN @Apple So the bottom line is--because the private key material is created on device for each path, we don't have it, and we can't get it.

@FoHmaddox @ProtonVPN @Apple IDVector uses custom PKI material created on device for each and every Pro Client (and future hardware) for each and every new path created.

@FoHmaddox @ProtonVPN Not possible w/out drastic infrastructure & code changes. Thanks to @Apple's Feb 2016 case v. FBI, no precedent for gov compelling new code.

@FoHmaddox @ProtonVPN Hi Mike! To address subpoena concerns, we don't keep any data that would be useful to law enforcement.
