China and Russia - Proton VPN does not work there.
USA - it works. Is there some laws I dont know about that USA has in order to gather data from VPN providers?
It works sometimes, and Proton did not stop providing services there, you can buy their vpn, the government just blocks the protocols.
The US has a law that may require you to add backdoors to your software. Do they have to comply with that one in your opinion?
May and must are two different words. May they implement or must they implement?
Ability to get a subscription of Proton VPN in China and Russia doesn’t necessarily mean that they are not blocked. If you can get a subscription to a service your country desperately is trying to block, it is probably not in a straight “go to website, pay, get service” way. You probably had to find workarounds to get it. That does not count as “operating in this country”.
It is like “Amazon does not operate in this country”, but you got a friend in the one which does, so you just order form him and ask him to send goods by post.
Seems you are confused how those blocks work so let’s talk about their services that are definitely not blocked like mail. You can easily and legally buy their mail service in those countries. Do they have to comply with their laws with their mail service?
Didn’t understand your answer about the US laws. If some judge in the US decides that Proton need to make a backdoor, what happens then?
