In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
I used Mullvad for about six months and it worked great so in terms of performance I don't think you will have any problems. And since they also use Mullvad I think they have the same privacy practices so I think you are good there. What it would worry the more to me is if they have clients for your platform and how good they are.
Also you are supporting Mozilla, which is great.
Do either Mozilla or Mullvad provide OpenVPN or WireGuard configuration files? I prefer to use those since KDE natively supports them, or I can use them with my favorite open source VPN clients.
For example, with PIA, I'm just using their OpenVPN files and completely bypassing their proprietary clients.
Mullvad supports both, but I'm not sure about Mozilla. Mullvad clients are all libre, I don't know about Mozilla, but I imagine they are, too.
Yep, you can download mullvad configs and use wg-quick up mullvad-de20 etc if you don’t want to use client. The client is good though so you don’t have to update configs when servers go down or are added etc.
re mozilla vpn:
We don’t log, track, or share any of your network activity. We adhere strictly to Mozilla’s Data Privacy Principles, and we only collect the most minimal data required to keep the VPN healthy and operational.
which probably means they’re doing telemetry
Kind of great, the company cares more about executives than their employees.
