Then what makes a privacy oriented service different from others when they can open a backdoor for government? The thing is government wants control and they will change laws for exactly that. What Proton should have done was to eliminate the chance of this happening in the first place. Why are they having a logging mechanism? Why don't they use RAM only servers or something like that? Privacy services should have the infrastructure and legal power to say "No", or they are lying.
You need to read the article. It explicitly and IMO satisfactorily answers your excellent questions.
