Comments and Reviews
Mullvad are one of the only VPNs to support the cutting edge WireGuard protocol. I use this together together with SOCKS5, and get speed increases of up 1000% compared with OpenVPN.
I wouldn't use a VPN based in the EU lmao
If there are genuinely no logs and they don't know who you are (because they don't ask for any personal information unlike with other VPN providers), then the jurisdiction is of less importance. For example, Edward Snowden has endorsed San Francisco based Signal, and his approval was validated when Open Whisper were recently compelled by a federal subpoena to hand over info on a certain account. Unfortunately for the US government, the logs showed only when the user first signed up for the service and when they most recently logged in.
The same would be true for Mullvad, which - by the way - is based in a far less draconian legal system than Open Whisper. Mullvad's sign up process, in literally 2 seconds, gives you an account without you having to provide ANY personal information of any kind. No name, no email address, nothing. This is because Mullvad uses a genius token based system.
Mullvad crystally clear explain on their website what they don’t log, how they're able to achieve it and why they don't want to keep logs on you. This inspires a lot of confidence.
Further, I would rather have a transparent and ethical EU based provider than a shady Panamanian (or wherever) based one that don't even reveal who the people and developers are behind the company. Mullvad, on the other hand, is developed and run by genuine privacy activists who are well known in the community.
If you appreciate the importance of open-source and transparency in general, then using one of your "non-EU" services represents the antithesis IMO.

I’ve been using Mullvad and have always considered it one of the best VPNs when it comes to privacy and security. I’ve had a good experience with the service itself and have a lot of respect for the work they have done in protecting users’ privacy.
However, I’m deeply disappointed by the recent €450,000 (5 million SEK) political donation made by a Mullvad co-founder and 50% owner.
I understand that it was a personal donation and not made by Mullvad itself. But that personal wealth comes from owning a company funded by its users’ subscriptions, so calling it “personal” doesn’t completely separate it from the company for me.
What makes it even more disappointing is that the money went to a far-right party whose leader has promoted “remigration” and has used the word “parasites” when referring to immigrants and people from other backgrounds.
I’m not questioning Mullvad’s privacy, security, or the quality of the service. Those remain excellent. I’m simply very disappointed in the people behind a company I used to have a lot of respect for.
For now, I’ve decided to stop using the service. I hope this situation is reconsidered in the future.
The product itself is very good, but the money you pay is partially going to an extreme right Swedish political party through one of the co-owners. To me, that is a deal-breaker. I will be taking my business to IVPN and Proton. Bye Mullvad.
Provides free exit nodes to certain networking projects. €5 for everyone? Except those getting it free
Mullvad was the first VPN to convince me to spend money on it, it is genuinely the most privacy oriented VPN currently.
I would also take a look at their private DNS service, it's free and it's really good. I was using nextDNS but I switched to it. I no longer pay for mullvad but i continue to use their DNS
VPN service is amazing, but 5 simultaneous clients for one account is ridiculous. They must add some devices per account. Then I'd give them 5 stars.
100% private, you can even pay cash
