The way in which your script verifies if a Protonmail address is valid does not work anymore.
The Proton API is broken.

Try it out with any protonmail address and the API will always return a positive match for an email that does not exist --> https://api.protonmail.ch/pks/lookup?op=index&search=oiezjaodfvdfvdfvssdfvdfvsdfiehjveiovuhzervui@protonmail.com

This is why the tool Protosint by PixelBubble is broken and has been broken for a long time.
It's also why I updated my own script --> https://github.com/C3n7ral051nt4g3ncy/Prot1ntelligence

Thank you for warning me about this flaw, but how can I check if the email address really exists??

@N0rz3 If you have a Protonmail account, you can type the email and check if you see the padlock
See example where I put the email from above, and a real email that exists.
Check out the script from @Kr0wZ / https://github.com/Kr0wZ/NeutrOSINT
He found a way to check.
