Might want to be aware that if you give money to Mullvad, some of it ends up funding the far-right in Sweden: https://www.theregister.com/software/2026/07/21/some-mullvad-vpn-customers-tunnel-for-exit-after-co-founder-donates-millions-to-populist-party/5275012

Similar story for Proton with the far-right stuff: https://theintercept.com/2025/01/28/proton-mail-andy-yen-trump-republicans/

Yeah that's not even close to the same story.

I recently took a new look at the VPN market because of this and because my subscription was nearing empty. So many providers are untrustworthy. I narrowed it down to Mullvad, Proton and iVPN, where iVPN would be the most ideal (no political drama yet)... But then I read complaints about the speed from their servers. I ended up buying more time with Mullvad, but I'm not thrilled about it so if anyone has different experiences or insights please share.
