Here's the full message proton sent me in regards to banning my account if anyone is interested. Not a valid reason to ban my entire account.

Damn so excessive torrenting with a VPN and you out?
Yep, locked from everything, emails, passwords, Bitcoin wallet (don't keep money proton wallet but if I did coudnt access it).
That's so weird. On QubesOS I run at least five different Proton VPNs connected to five different geographical locations on different VMs at the same time—all on the same account, and over Tor. Are you on the paid plan? Something weird seems to be getting triggered on your account. I'm definitely following this, please keep us posted as you know more.
What exactly is the "suspicious activity" would be the question that I would ask.
I know, I don't understand any of it. We will see what they say next.
They just give you what the reasons are 😀
is bittorrenting illegal in the US?

Had a simular experience with proton years ago. Accessed my account from different VPNs and tor nodes. Got permanently banned from my email account. This in turn locked me out of everything I used the email for so it created quite a lot of hassle. I been warning people about Proton ever since. Sad to see a lot of bitcoiners still trust them. Hope you at least get access again so you can move on.
PSA Proton suck! Beware

@Proton @npub1mea2...qane @Proton Wallet this is a terrible look in a continent that is striving for the elimination of privacy.
Shameful.
Note to myself, so that I don‘t fall for its marketing: it‘s difficult with proton

wow. @npub1mea2...qane @Proton Wallet you need to fix this. this kind of thing can’t happen, embarrassing.
Rugged
Maybe they think you’re a scammer
@npub1mea2...qane fuck this shit. This is how you get rid of dedicated customers.
Why? When they want to keep on working for all clients, they have to be able to filter out potential abuse.
I mean in this mail @Space Dog gets the opportunity, to tell why he needs this exessive use. I mean when they would not do it, they would allow DDoS attacks via their VPN, which would eventually lead to legal consequences for Proton.
Proton wallet non-custodial, you can access it even if they go belly up.
What account? Proton mail? Proton VPN?
Both, all proton services.
I just dont trust them, feels like security theatre when they flag me when they cannot identify where i am coming from or who i am. BTW I never got access to my locked protonmail account back and it caused me alot of trouble as i used it for alot of web service logins.

Yikes "excessive torrenting"?! The F they think they are to tell people what to do with their account?!
Was this just the VPN or the Email too?
Either way, definitely suss. Self-hosted email is looking like the only option, and yet, if the Email DNS is centralized, there's issues there too...hmmm...
Here you are, proving once again, that you don't understand Privacy AT ALL 🙄😮💨😒 @freemymind 🇨🇭 all the hashtags in your profile are useless, if you don't even understand the fundamentals.
I am always happy to learn better. So just reach out, when you got any improvement 😉
But it seems you are just intrested to herrass me.?
Did I trigger you somehow?
Just wondering how you got unblocked when we moved clients.
No, from multiple interactions with you we've realized you need the other person to do all the work and spoon-feed you info. You barely ever put in the effort yourself.
Further the Proton comment you made, made us realize how fruitless discussions with folks like you are, when the fundamentals itself are missing. You immediately placed the blame on @Space Dog when legit everyone else can see Proton is wrong.
Best of luck. You need it.
*blocked on new client too*
"Looks like Proton's got a case of the Mondays...or maybe they just upgraded their spam filter a little *too* well. Ouch."
I assume you do not read this comment.
My approach of understanding a situation is questioning myself: Why did perso A write what they wrote? and then Why did person B wrote what they wrote?
Then I try to come into a creative mode, what triggers could have let someone to do it. Afterwards I try to find out, which option is most probably.
I think this is quiet an analytic process. I try to understand. Not to blame an entity or a person.
Many people seem to skip the urge to understand someones action and go directly to judgment. This seems flawed to me.
And judging without telling what is good seems a void message as well.
