VPNs see everything you do, and you pay them for it. I don't understand how people don't see the irony there.

they in theory see everything someone does, but in the case of mullvad they have no idea who you are

Could you say how Mullvad differs from ProtonVPN? I have it with my mail subscription and it seems pretty good. I don't know much about vpns though

[–] brian 3 points 9 months ago

haven't looked into protonvpn much, but it's more or less a different company providing the same service. I imagine the differences aren't too significant if you trust both companies
