For many users, the tide is turning against big tech firms – and cloud storage is no different.

If, like many, you’re beginning to lose faith and are looking for an alternative, then look no further – this Black Friday, Proton Drive has a stunning 60% off – bringing the monthly cost to just $1.99 for 200GB.

Swiss firm Proton is owned primarily by the not-for-profit Proton Foundation, and looks to be a security-focused open source company, whose goal is to ‘to build an internet that puts people before profits, empowering users with control over their digital lives and promoting digital freedom through secure, privacy-focused products.’

Now, unfortunately the price you pay for deviating from the convenience of big tech firms is that Proton doesn’t have the same spending power as Google – so the service is often a little slower, and it doesn’t come with the same bells and whistles.

With this Black Friday deal, you get E2EE, automatic photo backup, secure file storage and sharing, as well as file recovery. But, for simple, solid cloud storage, it won’t let you down.

If that’s not for you, we have a Black Friday cloud storage deal hub, which we will keep updating as the day grows closer.
