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?
Because it’s only one point you don’t have to trust instead of every point along the way
That’s kind of like saying you want only amazon to deliver your packages instead of amazon, FedEx, ups, etc.
In other words, a honeypot. Putting all your eggs in one basket.
It’s true that the point of failure in a VPN is the provider, which is why trusting the company is important.
It’s also true that you definitely can’t trust your ISP and government so in the worst case scenario you just wasted $70.
Exactly. And seeing is believing, I’m not trusting some for profit corp with all my traffic data lol.
Also some people dont know how to set up VPNs properly, I realize a lot have apps now but site to site seems to be an option on most. If you just clunk your way through without knowing what you’re doing, you potentially could be opening your whole network to them.
No you can’t trust your ISP either. But this is why things like DNS over HTTPS and other protocols exist to encrypt everything. And if you’re going to that length with a VPN provider, you’re just throwing money away and no better off
