Proton VPN says it enabled the "Discreet Icons " feature to help its users in case governments, police, or other authorities seize their devices.

It argues that a concealed icon may help prevent authorities from uncovering all of a user's activity.

Proton is also expanding its "Stealth" VPN protocol compatibility to include Windows PC users.
