Today we announce that we have completely removed all traces of disks being used by our VPN infrastructure!

Anyone got any real hands on with this vpn provider? Its not one I’ve ever heard of, but sounds good from a quick look on their site.

I had never heard of it either. I had PIA when I was on Windows, still haven’t gotten it setup on Linux though.

I use them. I’ve found the speeds to be quite acceptable, plenty fast enough to play video games and download movies.

It’s a good one. You can stuff cash in an envelope to pay for it if you want.

You haven’t heard of it? It’s arguably the best.

Been using it exclusively for about a year. Very satisfied with the performance. It is a very no-nonsense service. They provide a VPN, anonymous payment options, and a flat rate regardless how much you buy at a time or when you buy (which is personally a big plus for me). They don’t bug you to renew, and they don’t offer any sort of auto-renewal. The only downside I could see is that if you are looking for a VPN provider that offers a large suite of privacy-adjacent tools labeled as a VPN app, you would be disappointed.

I’ve used them for about a year, so far no complaints. High speed, high privacy, only a couple things have required me to turn off my vpn to access them.

Needing to turn off Mulvad for Netflix and other services was the deal breaker for me. Otherwise loved it.

I second the others. It is the #1 privacy VPN. It is also fairly priced, imo. Be careful and consider your threat model. VPN is not fool proof.

It’s one of the most lauded privacy-focused VPNs around.

Well lets definitely berate them for not knowing, that’s sure to be fucking helpful

I actively did my best to take any condescendence out of this comment. I don’t have personal experience with Mullvad except for Mozilla VPN (which I believe is just re-skinned Mullvad, if I’m not mistaken), so I just told them what I knew about it. How is that berating them?

And I carefully worded my sentence not to convey that sentiment while still stating the fact.
