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?

This is the only reason for why I haven't demanded a refund of my remaining balance yet. I'm holding out for a dismissal or something.

Demanding a refund could add to the pressure though, you could always renew after he (hopefully) goes. I can't get a refund since mine has just run out but I'm not making any long-term decisions until the dust has settled.

I totally agree! It's just that I have two routers setup with them, running 24/7, and I have configured mom's devices with my account and I don't have the time to reconfigure all this with something else at the moment. 😩

Is there other option?

[-] akunohana@piefed.blahaj.zone 3 points 3 months ago

There are many options. It's important to do some research on these options. It's also important to know why you want to choose a certain provider. Check their Terms of Service and Privacy Policy at the very least. For now, I'm looking into IVPN.

I'm giving it a week or two to see if anything happens while also researching alternatives
