Proton refuses to be 'held hostage' by controversial Swiss surveillance law
Proton has said it is moving most of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland due to concerns surrounding the country's proposed surveillance law. Its new Lumo AI assistant is the first product to move, as it looks to invest in, and embrace, the wider European continent. This would impact all of Proton's privacy-focused products, including Proton VPN – one of the best VPNs we've tested. Back in May, Proton CEO Andy Yen initially hinted that the provider could leave Switzerland if the surveillance law was passed. Traditionally, Swiss privacy laws have been very strong but revisions to its encryption law are proposing increased surveillance obligations, data collection, and user identification. The law's amendments are yet to be approved but Proton isn't taking any chances. Proton won't be moving all of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland straight away, with a phased approach being taken. The decision was first noted in Proton's announcement of Lumo – its new, privacy-focused, AI assistant. It said "because of legal uncertainty around Swiss government proposals to introduce mass surveillance – proposals that have been outlawed in the EU – Proton is moving most of its physical infrastructure out of Switzerland. Lumo will be the first product to move." Proton will continue its fight against the proposed surveillance law and argued it would be "extremely damaging to the Swiss economy." However it is also embracing the wider European continent and shifting Lumo out of Switzerland represents a €100 million plus investment into the EU. Speaking at the time of Lumo's launch, Andy Yen said its infrastructure will be located in Germany. Proton is also developing facilities in Norway, at a cost of CHF 100 million. The Proton team commented under a Reddit post clarifying its position. It said: "Proton's infrastructure is being diversified to Europe, so if the Swiss legal revision that we are opposing succeeds, Proton can't be held hostage by Switzerland by having all of our immovable server infrastructure stuck in the country." It added that Proton, and all of its products, remain under Swiss jurisdiction for now. It's important to clarify that although dangerous privacy laws are being proposed, they haven't yet been approved. As it stands, Switzerland's privacy laws remain strong and all Proton products continue to reap the benefits of this. It will continue to protect users with high standards of encryption, audited no-logs policies, and class-leading security. The proposed Swiss encryption laws have led to strong debates and cloud security company Infomaniak clashed with Proton over it. Infomaniak accused Proton of having a "lack of knowledge of Swiss political institutions" but subsequently released a statement saying it opposed the law's revision in their current form. The law seeks to collect and store user information, including metadata. Significant identifiable information can be harvested from metadata and this would seriously undermine services offering any type of encrypted communication. Threema and NymVPN are two other Swiss-based privacy providers that have opposed the law. The latter expressed its fundamental opposition to the changes in a detailed statement back in April 2025. We test and review VPN services in the context of legal recreational uses. For example: 1. Accessing a service from another country (subject to the terms and conditions of that service). 2. Protecting your online security and strengthening your online privacy when abroad. We do not support or condone the illegal or malicious use of VPN services.

Personalized Learning in High School Helps Prepare Students for the Workforce
LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Are employers settling for better-than-nothing applicants to fill their entry-level positions? In a recent J. Wallin Opinion survey of businesses large and small across the U.S., 43 percent said that they have lowered their hiring standards due to reduced skill levels – and of those, 57 percent feel it has negatively affected their business. 1 Since only 50 percent of high school seniors plan to go to a four-year college, high schools must prepare students for the workforce as well as post-secondary education Share 'We believe it's important that teens learn basic workplace skills to help them land and keep a job,' said Shellie Hanes, superintendent at Learn4Life, a network of public high schools that personalize learning to individual students' needs, strengths and goals. 'Since only 50 percent of high school seniors plan to go to a four-year college 2, high schools must prepare students for the workforce as well as post-secondary education.' While earning their diplomas, all Learn4Life students complete a 10-week professional skills course that has them exploring career goals and learning basic computing, resume preparation and interview etiquette. Once completed, students move on to workforce development activities with structured, hands-on experiences that allow them to discover career pathways, develop essential skills and transition smoothly into a career or higher education. August is Personal Learning Month, created to promote the idea of teaching students in the way each learns best, with opportunities to learn job and life skills that will serve them after high school. More than 90 percent of employers said that personalized learning would help produce better-prepared candidates for entry-level positions. 3 'Many students lacked organizational skills, struggled with grammar, had no idea how to fill out a job application, handle a job interview or understand the basics of appropriate work behavior,' Hanes added. 'We offer courses so teens can acquire the skills to succeed in whatever job they want to pursue. Plus, many graduate with industry-recognized certifications – saving them thousands of dollars and giving them an advantage over other recent grads.' Employers cite these basic skills that entry-level workers are least likely to have 4: Work ethic/dependability Time management Problem-solving skills People skills with other employees Interpersonal skills with clients Punctuality Leadership Hanes said Learn4Life addresses those skills and teaches students about workplace communication, career readiness, employability skills, leadership and even financial literacy. 'By developing a personalized learning plan for each student, we can help them grow in areas they are good at and spend a little extra time on the skills they're lacking,' she explained. 'Because they are regularly communicating directly with their teachers and school counselors, they become comfortable speaking with adults and responding to what is expected of them.' Students then can move on to a specific CTE pathway where they are introduced to workplace competencies and receive hands-on learning– with options like computer programming, foodservice, healthcare, construction, veterinary medicine, robotics, construction and cyber-security. They earn industry-recognized certifications so they can secure internships, apprenticeships or jobs. One student, Jackie R., had dropped out of school to take care of her two children. Fortunately, she found Learn4Life, where the flexibility and personalized support helped her catch up on credits. She started in a dual-enrollment certified nursing assistant (CNA) program, balancing hands-on clinicals, academic work and motherhood with the help of her teachers and a close-knit group of classmates. 'Before I came to this school, I never envisioned being anybody. And now I know I can be somebody,' Jackie said, smiling.

About Learn4Life Learn4Life is a network of nonprofit public high schools that provide students personalized learning, career training and life skills.
