Quick note, Proton AG itself (the for profit company) still owns, operates and develops the Proton services as we know. The only difference with the non-profit structure is that Proton AG is owned by the proton foundation. Which basically is a protection against aggressive takeovers and the enshittification that would follow. Also, tax advantages, probably.

OpenAI begs to differ.
From what I understand since the proton nonprofit is established in Switzerland, it’s more restrictive than the USA
That’s a good point but I see nothing about that in their announcement. Could very well just establish a US-based non-profit.
