I greatly value Proton’s commitment to protecting user privacy through your suite of encrypted services. However, I see an opportunity to enhance the user experience and strengthen Proton’s value proposition even further.

Currently, users who want to remove their personal information from the internet must manually contact data brokers, websites, and search engines ... a time-consuming and ongoing task. I suggest Proton develop a Personal Information Removal System that would:

1. Scan and Identify: Automatically detect where a user’s personal data is publicly available or held by data brokers.
2. Automate Removal Requests: Send verified opt-outs or deletion requests on behalf of users.
3. Monitor Continuously: Notify users if data reappears and manage ongoing suppression.
4. Integrate with Proton Services: Seamlessly complement existing Proton tools like VPN, Mail, and Drive.

This feature would transform Proton from a data protector into an active defender of online identity, giving users a complete privacy solution while differentiating Proton from competitors. It would also increase trust, user engagement, and potential premium subscriptions.

Thank you for considering this suggestion. I believe it aligns perfectly with Proton’s mission to safeguard personal data in the most comprehensive way possible.
