I’d appreciate any insight ppl can offer, especially relative to mullvad VPN: could a casual privacy valuer benefit from this over mullvad now or in the future?
Has anyone seen this one listed on VPN comparison sites?
Same:
They take straight monero and generate accounts from no personal info
Pros:
It’s something like 1$/device/mo, so sometimes cheaper than mullvad.
Doesn’t use gmail or centralized servers like mullvad, argued here; went over my head
Something about improving browser privacy
Cons:
Beta; small project; haven’t found credible endorsements

If you’re a casual privacy user, then accepting monero and making accounts with no personal info isn’t really something to be concerned about having.
Instead I would use a well known VPN with audits done that is shown to not hold logs, like Mullvad.
thr article is talking about how that protocol can male you more vulnrable to browser fingerprinting i think im not sure the main complaint is with all these no kyc vpns they get linked to you as soon as you login so your shifting the burden of trust from your isp to the vpn
Any other VPN than Mullvad VPN is scam /s
they all have the same issue its just mullvad is a bit better
If it has not been regularly audited there is really no reason to trust a vpn provider. Wait until they have some proof they do what they say.
their website shouts “scam”, but maybe they just have poor taste.
they give a pretty weird answer about audits in their FAQs. I’m not an expert, but I wouldn’t trust them compared to Mullvad which I currently use.
Thank you for your reply! Ik what you mean about the site; i hope it’s just for normie appeal
I couldn’t see where it was located, but the staff having the Gadsden flag doesn’t inspire confidence. I’d pass on it for that reason alone.
What do you use?
Mullvad.
