💨 Abstract

The Karnataka High Court in India has ordered the blocking of encrypted email provider Proton Mail, following a complaint from M Moser Design Associates alleging the receipt of obscene emails. The court directed the Indian government to block Proton Mail under the Information Technology Act 2008, as the email service had reportedly refused to share details about the sender of the offensive emails. The block has yet to take effect, and Proton Mail has yet to comment.
