I used Mullvad for a long time, but hearing about one of the two CEOs actively supporting and financing swedish Nazis, I’m looking to put my money elsewhere. That’s the second one after Private Internet Access (who supported Gab).

I had AirVPN and Surfshark being recomnended, how do people here feel? What do you use?

    Wait. One of the mullvad founders funding a small Nazi party in Örebro has made national news in the US? The fuck?

    I hadn’t even heard of the party until now and I live in the neighbouring county.

    Edit: holy shit, they’ve used the money well. They’ve grown significantly in the polls, from being a straggler 2022 to being the second largest in recent polls.

    Fuck.

      Yeah, it’s very weird because normally I don’t feel like they would care, which is the biggest reason of why I’m taking it with a grain of salt.

      It’s clear from the response by the company that it’s not a trait that they actually are happy with. But I find it weird that it’s being pushed so heavily.

        There’s a lot of money to be made in destroying the reputation of a competitor that actually respects the privacy of its’ customers.
