Proton launches new "Meet" privacy-focused conferencing platform

Proton announced Meet, a privacy-focused video conferencing service offering end-to-end encrypted group calls using Messaging Layer Security (MLS), WebRTC with SFU, and Secure Remote Password (SRP) authentication; the free plan supports one-hour meetings for up to 50 participants, with paid options for longer sessions. Proton positions Meet as an EU-based alternative to mainstream services to help with GDPR/CCPA compliance and to prevent conversations from being exposed or used to train AI, and describes architecture choices and mitigations for risks such as compromised meeting links.
