Proton offers a Drive, and they're based in Switzerland. I don't see them being strong-armed like this by the UK government any time soon.
Proton sucks, and its not even the whole CEO thing, I could barely download anything using their official Android app, and if it goes background, it just stops working (even with battery optimization disabled).
I mean, if you only use desktop, sure...
But their mobile app (at least the Android one) is garbage. You literally cannot have more than like 25 files downloading at once, imagine having 1000 pictures and have to manually download them all... ๐คฆโโ๏ธ (yes that's me, I had 1000 photos and had to manually download them all 25 at a time so it doesn't crash)
