Switzerland would be useless if it can't remain a safe haven.
They can go anywhere in Europe, since that type of surveillance seems to be illegal
Most hosting companies doesn't even really want colocation anymore, it's sort a niche product.
Of the ~10 parties with a chance of a seat at the parlament, absolutely none have any clue what so ever when it comes to IT security matters.
The major parties have multiple times attemted to push egregious laws like collecting all internet metadata in our country, and storing it for years. They argued it wouldn't be a risk because only authorized personel would have access...
Sheer luck has twarted those attempts.
It seems more crazy to believe that two, three or four parties can represent 80 million or more people. The truth is that many of the parties in countries like Norway and Denmark are all fairly similar. They mostly agree on the basics. Six of the twelve parties in Denmark are, in my mind, variations on Social Democrats. I'm sure many would disagree, but they vary on issues, that in countries like the US, would be considered implementation details or narrow topics.

It was also Swedish EU commissioner who wants to ban end-to-end encrypted chats and brought various proposals to the EU for this.
The UK, US, Australia, and other capitalist flagships are all trying to do the same. Not to mention the Patriot Act.
Generally, this is because Swedes trust the state.

The problem would be all the debris up there. Maybe destroying one satellite would destroy them all.

Any legal system can pass a law saying "we revoke this previous law".
Then you layer these protections against multiple levels of government so they'd all have to be repealed together by separate legislatures before the government is allowed to do it, discouraging the attempt.
These are goods things.
Best I could find as a non Swiss:
> Threema and Proton In the daily news of 'SRF', Jean-Louis Biberstein, the deputy head of the federal postal and telecommunications service, said that the requirements for service providers are not tightened, but merely specified. A company like Threema would have the same obligations as before after the revision. Threema contradicts this in a statement from the end of April. The Vüpf revision would force the company to abandon the principle of "only collecting as few data as technically required".
(From auto translation of report about this already failing to proceed.)
Is Federal Post the entity or is it a person, or a group in Swiss government seeking to take authority over information?
I didn't realize just how batshit crazy their CEO was, and how potentially unsafe I was wrt to this administration.

Long story short, the CEO has publicly backed Trump, Vance, and other officials in this new regime.
For starters, they are Swiss nationals; they should be steering clear of advocating for US politicians, let alone fascist adjacent politicians.
How safe is my data for real? If I help someone with trans-affirming health or abortion help, will I be outed by Proton? That's the kind of questions I absolutely must ask after declarations from their CEO.
Or put more plainly, I switched to another VPN provider and killed my subscription after the comments were made public. I simply do not trust this company to shield me and my data as they claim they would. Maybe its overblown, but reputation is a big thing with a 'privacy affiliated systems network'. And their CEO burnt it.
