God bloody dammit. I genuinely LOVE Mullvad and have tried to use their (not so cheap) services. I feel in this economy, privacy comes at a price and I was happy to do this.

Now, I realise my money is going to fund a POS far-right asshole.

Proton supports Trump.

Mullvad suports the far right.

Is there any major privacy respective service provider that isn't a bloody cunt?

Same here, we're left with AirVPN at that point.
