Would be moving from Mullvad, would appreciate opinions on the current landscape of VPN’s from those who keep a better eye out. TIA.

    Proton is and always was sketchy.

    A company claiming “Swiss privacy laws” as their base while de facto operating out of the US is highly problematic. Switzerland has the weakest privacy laws of all European countries, has laws in place for extensive intelligence agency placement within their tech companies and has a history of intelligence agency overreach. The USA can easily make companies and executives do what they want due to the whole Homeland security act clusterfuck.

    I wouldn’t touch then with a ten foot pole if data privacy was ones goal.
