I take Mr. Yen's point in his tweet but does he not see Trump is all for big business? I highly doubt Trump will do anything about big tech as long as they kneel to him. If they defy him then he'll maybe do something but considering he wants us to be strong against China he won't in the end probably.

Mr. Yen did post that tweet 4th of December which (I believe) was before Zuckerberg and the rest of big tech publicly cozied up to Trump. I hope he has changed tack on this view of his (haven't read his tweets since them so don't know).

Ultimately I will still continue to use Proton since they have the best track record of any email provider but might reconsider. Unfortunately, there isn't really another option (as far as I know) other than hosting the email server yourself (which is a ball ache)
