      Proton and Wire didn’t share any decrypted ciphertexts, Wire shared a ProtonMail address and Proton an iCloud Address that they had set as a recovery method.

      Personal info like where they live came from Apple.

      Yes. They never gave away content of emails, because they couldn’t even if they wanted to. It’s encrypted.

      They gave the recovery email for the account to the authorities, which was an iCloud account tied to the user’s real name.

        I know you’re correct about proton. Didn’t realize they were all like that.
