There’s way too much hype over VPN Providers, but do not forget, you are routing all your traffic through their servers

As a general advice, if a VPN provider keeps logs of your activity, does not allow you to pay with crypto, and generally spends way too much on youtube ads is probably not an ideal choice.

Do not follow any advice/recommendation blindly, do your own research on which one offers the best service for your own needs.

    I don’t understand the downvotes. Crypto is ideal way of paying if you want to stay anonymous. Even Mullvad says that if you pay with Paypal that there’s some data they are required to keep on file.

      Crypto isn’t anonymous though from my understanding. Since every transaction gets recorded, you can be identified through your transaction history.

      You can also pay for mullvad by mailing them cash with a note saying which account to apply it to. I did it once just for fun.
